Overview

We aim to determine the function of Right ventricle post mitral valve surgeries in patients with pulmonary hypertension using transthoracic echocardiography3- and 6-months post-operatively to detect the effect of mitral valve surgeries over the RV function whether improving, deteriorating, or not changing at all.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients who underwent mitral valve surgeries who also had pulmonary hypertension in the period between March 2019 and March 2022 in Assiut university heart hospital Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who underwent mitral valve surgeries with normal pulmonary pressure. Patients who had other valve surgeries besides mitral as aortic and/or tricuspid valve surgeries. Patients had mitral valve surgeries with other heart conditions that needed another intervention in the same session as CABG for IHD.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Right Ventricular function post mitral valve surgeries in patients with pulmonary hypertension

to detect right ventricular function (ejection fraction percentage and/or TAPSE) through transthoracic echocardiography 3- and 6-months post operatively in patients who had mitral valve surgeries with pulmonary hypertension.

Time frame: From March 2019 till March 2022

Secondary Outcomes

Best mitral valve surgical modalities in patients with pulmonary hypertension

to identify best surgical modalities for mitral valve diseased patients with pulmonary hypertension that lead to improvement of right ventricle function.

Time frame: From March 2019 till March 2022
