PV Loop Differences in TEER vs. Valve Replacement: A Powerful Clinical Comparison (7 Key Insights)

by

Introduction to Pressure–Volume (PV) Loops in Cardiology Pressure–volume (PV) loops are one of the most useful tools in cardiology for understanding how the heart works. A PV loop shows how pressure and volume inside the left ventricle change during one heartbeat. By looking at the shape and size of the loop, doctors and students can … Read more

Immediate PV Loop Changes Post-TEER: Acute Hemodynamic Adjustments

by

Introduction Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (TEER) has revolutionized the treatment of mitral regurgitation (MR), offering a minimally invasive alternative to open-heart surgery. One of the most critical aspects of TEER is its immediate impact on pressure-volume (PV) loop hemodynamics changes during TEER, which provides real-time insight into cardiac function modifications. Understanding the acute changes in preload, … Read more
