Tricuspid regurgitation in ischemic mitral regurgitation patients: prevalence, predictors for outcome and long-term follow-up

Table 4 Echocardiographic parameters according to Groups (reference for Fig. 3)

Echocardiographic parameters	Group 1	Group 2	Group 3	Group 4
Echocardiographic parameters	(n = 23)	(n = 9)	(n = 41)	(n = 97)
MR grade ≥ 2	+ ^a	+	+ ^e	–
LVEF ≤ 24%	+ ^b	+	–	–
RVD grade ≥ 2	+	–	–^f	–^h
sPAP ≥ 38 mmHg	+ ^c	+ ^d	–^g	–ⁱ

MR indicates mitral regurgitation; LVEF, Left ventricular ejection fraction; RV, right ventricular dysfunction; sPAP, systolic pulmonary artery pressure
^aTwo patients had MR grade < 2
^bSeven patients had LVEF > 24%
^cOne patient had sPAP < 38 mmHg
^dTwo patients had sPAP < 38 mmHg
^eFive patients had MR grade < 2
^fSix patients had LVEF > 24%
^gFive patients had sPAP ≥ 38 mmHg
^hOne patient had RVD grade ≥ 2
ⁱTen patients had sPAP ≥ 38 mmHg
