Atrial fibrillation’s role in MitraClip patient outcomes: a retrospective analysis of mortality and heart failure hospitalization in a single-centre cohort
AF in TEER patients is characterized by elevated atrial filling pressures and substantially accelerated time to heart failure hospitalization, with tricuspid regurgitation at discharge predicting early events. Although these findings indicate the need for more intensive monitoring of patients with AF during the first post-procedural year, comparable survival rates suggest that AF alone should not preclude TEER in otherwise suitable candidates.
