Management of 3+/4+ MR with HF (CCF)
1,095 pts* with 3+/4+ MR and HF between 2000 and 2008
(74% FMR, 21% DMR). Rx before 10/2011:
DMR pts (n=226): 84% MV surgery, 16% medical Rx
FMR pts (n=814): 36% MV surgery (77% w/CABG), 64% med Rx.
Un-operated pts had lower LVEF (mean 27% vs. 42%, p<0.0001 and higher
STS score (median 5.8 vs. 4.0, p<0.001) compared with operated pts.

Mod/Sev MR after TAVR: CoreValve Registry
In 1,007 pts at multiple Italian sites with severe AS treated with 3rd gen
CoreValve, baseline no/mild, moderate and severe MR (site reported)
was present in 67%, 24% and 9% of pts, respectively.

By multivariable analysis, baseline mod/sev MR was an independent predictor
of overall mortality at 1 year (HR, 2.9; 95% CI, 2.5–3.8; P=0.001). Improvement
in MR severity was not associated with a beneficial effect on survival.

Medical Therapy
For MR
Basic Principles of Medical Therapy
Recommendations
Secondary prevention of rheumatic fever is indicated in
patients with rheumatic heart disease, specifically
mitral stenosis
Prophylaxis against infective endocarditis (IE) is
reasonable for the following patients at highest risk for
adverse outcomes from IE prior to dental procedures
that involve manipulation of gingival tissue,
manipulation of the periapical region of teeth, or
perforation of the oral mucosa:
Patients with prosthetic cardiac valves;
Patients with previous IE;
Cardiac transplant recipients with valve regurgitation
due to a structurally abnormal valve; or (continued

Chronic Primary Mitral Regurgitation:
Medical Therapy
Recommendations
Medical therapy for systolic dysfunction is
reasonable in symptomatic patients with chronic
primary MR (stage D) and LVEF less than 60%
in whom surgery is not contemplated
Vasodilator therapy is not indicated for
normotensive asymptomatic patients with
chronic primary MR (stages B and C1) and
normal systolic LV function

Chronic Secondary Mitral Regurgitation:
Medical Therapy
Recommendations
COR LOE
Patients with chronic secondary MR (stages B to D)
and HF with reduced LVEF should receive standard
GDMT therapy for HF, including ACE inhibitors,
I
A
ARBs, beta blockers, and/or aldosterone antagonists
as indicated
Noninvasive imaging (stress nuclear/positron
emission tomography, CMR, or stress
echocardiography), cardiac CT angiography, or
cardiac catheterization, including coronary
I
A
arteriography, is useful to establish etiology of chronic
secondary MR (stages B to D) and/or to assess
myocardial viability, which in turn may influence
management of functional MR

Goals of Treatment
• Functional MR:
-Slow or reverse remodeling
-Improve symptoms/functional class
-Decrease hospitalizations for CHF
-Increase time to transplant or VAD
(slow progression to advanced HF)
-Improve survival
Medical Therapy
• Medical treatments proven effective for
treating the ventricular disease in large
RCTs also reduce the severity of
functional MR in some patients
• Data directly addressing the effect of
treatment on MR are less robust- old,
small series with limited follow up.
