AIM: Data on associations of invasively determined hemodynamic parameters with procedural success and outcomes in patients suffering from mitral regurgitation (MR) undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair of the mitral valve (M-TEER) is limited. METHODS AND RESULTS: We enrolled 239 patients with symptomatic MR of grade 2 + , who received M-TEER. All patients underwent extensive pre-interventional invasive hemodynamic measurements via right heart catheterization (mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP), systolic- (PAPsys) and diastolic pulmonary arterial pressure (PAPdia), pulmonary arterial wedge pressure (PAWP), a-wave, v-wave, pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), transpulmonary pressure gradient (TPG), cardiac index (CI), stroke volume index (SVI))...
