Secondary TR (STR) arises as a consequence of excessive right ventricular load, leading to right ventricular remodeling, annular dilation, and chordal tethering. This condition imposes a volume overload on the right heart, resulting in long-term severe cases manifesting right heart functional decline. Advanced regurgitation leads to decreased forward cardiac output into the right ventricle, often accompanied by symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue, and generalized edema due to systemic venous congestion. Even in severe TR, symptoms can remain minimal over an extended period, which poses a problem by delaying surgical intervention. Hence, the consideration of invasive treatment without undue delay is imperative.
Therefore, this study aims to investigate STR patients and longitudinally measure exercise stress echocardiography to assess the contractile capability and systolic reserve of the right ventricle and elucidate their relationship with prognosis. Stress echocardiography is routinely performed in clinical practice as a diagnostic tool for valvular heart diseases, commonly used to evaluate the correlation between symptoms and valvular disease severity, as well as to assess cardiac reserve function. Although its utility is well-documented for aortic and mitral valve conditions, evidence regarding stress echocardiography in tricuspid valve diseases is scarce. In light of this, the study seeks to define exercise-based indicators and reserve capacity indices that determine the prognosis of STR. It aims to clarify whether there are instances where symptoms are genuinely absent in daily life and whether there might be a need for treatment even in asymptomatic cases. Ultimately, the research aims to address the optimal timing for intervention. As minimally invasive catheter-based treatments become increasingly widespread for STR cases, the importance of accurately determining the timing for managing STR is expected to grow, making this study highly significant.
Safety,Efficacy
The study aims to assess mortality, heart failure readmissions, and the need for therapeutic interventions at 1, 3, and 5 years post-enrollment.
As secondary endpoints, we will investigate changes in the contractile and diastolic abilities of the left and right ventricles using transthoracic cardiac ultrasound examinations.
