The right ventricle - Key determinant of tricuspid procedural planning and clinical outcomes
With the collaboration of the PCR Tricuspid Focus Group
Tricuspid / Pulmonary valve
Case-based Discussion
Room 4
Anchorperson: Nina Wunderlich
Spokesperson: Denisa Muraru
Discussants: Rebecca Hahn, Karl-Patrik Kresoja, Tobias Ruf, Ludwig Weckbach
Watch this session if you want
- To understand the role of the right ventricle in the pathophysiology of tricuspid regurgitation
- To appreciate which imaging modalities are most useful to assess right ventricular morphology and function
- To know which parameters determine prognosis in the context of tricuspid intervention
