welcomes you to the new, improved website!The Cardiothoracic Surgical Trials Network recently reported that a third of patients after mitral valve repair for ischemic MR developed at least moderate recurrent MR at 1 year following surgery. This begs the question as to which patients with ischemic MR would benefit from repair vs. replacement. The present publication explored the development of a model to discriminate those patients that were more likely to develop recurrent MR following repair. The model included the following preoperative variables: age, BMI, sex, race, EROA, basal aneurysm/dyskinesis, NYHA, history of CABG, PCI, or ventricular arrhythmias. The model demonstrated good discrimination with an area under the ROC curve of 0.82.
