Study:
Surgical Interventions for Moderate Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation
Rationale:
n/a
Purpose:
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a procedure that people with coronary artery
disease (CAD) may undergo to increase blood flow to the heart. During a CABG procedure,
people who have a leak in one of the valves in the heart—the mitral valve—may at the same
time undergo a procedure that repairs the valve. This study will evaluate whether people
with moderate mitral valve leakage would be better off undergoing CABG plus the mitral valve
repair procedure or undergoing CABG alone.
