“…before and after device implant) and the following parameters: 90% power, 1-sided 5% significance level, standard deviation of 8 and mean of 5% (assuming a baseline AHCWR of 15% and a postoperative value of 20% at 12 months). AHCWR values range from 20 to 30% when a mitral valve functions properly and from 10 to 17% for diseased valve [8][9][10][11][12]. The sample size calculated using the above parameters was 41 for MEMO 4D featuring a saddle-shape configuration (34−42 mm).…”

“…IMR at rest 1 and worsening of IMR during exercise in patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy 4 carry an unfavorable effect on prognosis. Unfortunately, surgical repair of IMR has not been accompanied by an increase in survival in these patients 22 . Revascularization in patients with NSTACS improves the regional myocardial function 23 and this may attenuate the development or the progression of IMR in the long term.…”

“…Unfortunately, surgical repair of IMR has not been accompanied by an increase in survival in these patients. 22 Revascularization in patients with NSTACS improves the regional myocardial function 23 and this may attenuate the development or the progression of IMR in the long term. Therefore, patients with NSTACS and MR at rest or worsening of the regurgitation during exercise echocardiography could represent a subgroup that deserves particular attention.…”

“…Chronic IMR is a complex process that involves a combination of (1) annular dilatation plus flattening and (2) displacement of papillary muscles because of changes in function and geometry of the LV. The final result is a MV that shows a combination of Carpentier's class I (dilated annulus) and class IIIb (restricted leaflets tenting into the LV) mechanisms of MR. 12,13 The impact of ischemia-induced acute changes of ventricular wall motion on IMR is also a subject of debate and research. In a recent article, patients showing both ischemic heart disease and moderate MR and who planned to undergo CABG were assessed using low-dose (up to 10 μg/kg/min) dobutamine.…”
