Mitral valve repair is associated with better survival, improved lifestyle, better preservation of heart function, and a lower risk of stroke and infection (endocarditis) compared with mitral valve replacement. Repair procedures also do not require postprocedure anticoagulation therapy.

Surgical Treatment of Infective Endocarditis Bacterial (infective) endocarditis is a life-threatening infection of the heart valves or the heart s inner lining (endocardium).

Outcomes Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in the United States. JAMA. 13;31(19):9-77. doi:1.11/jama.13.83. PARTNER II Trial is currently recruiting patients for the second arm of the Placement of Aortic Transcatheter Valves (PARTNER II) trial. This phase involves a randomized study of patients who have a moderately high risk associated with traditional surgery to treat severe aortic stenosis. Researchers are studying the use of percutaneous aortic valve replacement in this patient population. The procedure is done through the transfemoral or left subclavian artery or via a transapical approach. Research also includes an approach through the ascending aorta via a mini-j incision.
