Brief Summary

The preferred treatment of organic mitral regurgitation (MR) is mitral valve repair. Optimally this should be timed so late that it commensurate with the risk of surgery and before irreversibly damage of the heart and pulmonary vessels. The aim is to obtain an understanding of the differences between the symptomatic and asymptomatic patient. The study will test A: Symptomatic organic MR is characterized by higher filling pressure, and higher stroke work during physical strain compared with asymptomatic MR. B: The extent of myocardial fibrosis is associated with filling pressure and cardiac index 1 year after mitral valve repair. C: Filling pressure can be estimated non-invasively by echocardiography. To test this 40 patients with asymptomatic MR and 40 symptomatic will undergo a stress echocardiography with simultaneous echocardiography and invasive measurement of central hemodynamics. In addition a pulmonary function test and cardiac MRI will be performed.

    One year after mitral valve replacement

  • Maximal oxygen consumption

    One year after mitral valve replacement

Study Arms (2)

Asymptomatic patients

Patients with asymptomatic severe mitral valve regurgitation not undergoing surgical repair of the valve.

Symptomatic patients

Patients with symptomatic severe mitral valve regurgitation undergoing surgical repair of the valve.

Procedure: Mitral valve repair

Interventions

The intervention is NOT related to the study design. It is a description of patients undergoing surgery vs. not undergoing surgery and this decision is made according to current guidelines (patients are not randomized).

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

In the research project the investigators will examine 80 patients with severe MR, of which 40 do not experience symptoms.

You may qualify if:

  • Organic mitral valve regurgitation with effective regurgitation orifice (ERO)\>0.3 cm2
  • Age \> 18 years
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \> 60% assessed by echocardiography
  • Signed informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Poor echocardiographic window
  • Inability to perform bicycle exercise testing
  • Ischemic or functional (secondary) mitral valve regurgitation
  • Chronic atrial fibrillation/flutter
  • Hemodynamic significant aortic valve disease assessed by echocardiography.
  • Treatment with oral anticoagulants
