Official title
Evaluation of Right Ventricular Function Post Mitral Valve Operations in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension.
Overview
We aim to determine the function of Right ventricle post mitral valve surgeries in patients with pulmonary hypertension using transthoracic echocardiography3- and 6-months post-operatively to detect the effect of mitral valve surgeries over the RV function whether improving, deteriorating, or not changing at all.
Interventions
- Device Echocardiography
Echocardiography 3 and 6 months post operative
Primary outcome measures
- Right Ventricular function post mitral valve surgeries in patients with pulmonary hypertension [Time frame: From March 2019 till March 2022]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
- Best mitral valve surgical modalities in patients with pulmonary hypertension [Time frame: From March 2019 till March 2022]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- Patients who underwent mitral valve surgeries who also had pulmonary hypertension in the period between March 2019 and March 2022 in Assiut university heart hospital
Exclusion criteria
- Patients who underwent mitral valve surgeries with normal pulmonary pressure. Patients who had other valve surgeries besides mitral as aortic and/or tricuspid valve surgeries. Patients had mitral valve surgeries with other heart conditions that needed another intervention in the same session as CABG for IHD.
Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
Healthy volunteers: No
Study design
- Observational model
- Case-control
