Atrial Fibrillation Mitral Valve Insufficiency
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combined electrical cardioversion and TEER in patients with severe mitral regurgitation and atrial fibrillation after undergoing TEER. The main objective is to assess the superiority of the combined treatment strategy in reducing the composite endpoints of all-cause mortality, re-hospitalization for heart failure, and stroke within one year, providing high-quality evidence-based medical evidence to optimize the "structural repair + rhythm control" comprehensive intervention strategy for such patients.
Interventions
PROCEDURETEER and Electrical Cardioversion
Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (TEER) followed by immediate electrical cardioversion (ECV) during the same procedure. ECV is performed with synchronized shock at 100-200J, preceded by intravenous amiodarone 300mg. If the first shock fails, a repeated shock up to 200J may be attempted. All patients receive guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), anticoagulation, and antiarrhythmic drugs per standard practice.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Composite of All-Cause Death, Heart Failure Rehospitalization, and Stroke | Within 12 months post-randomization | Composite endpoint consisting of: 1) all-cause death (cardiovascular or non-cardiovascular); 2) heart failure rehospitalization, defined as unplanned hospital stay of ≥24 hours due to new or worsening signs/symptoms of heart failure requiring intravenous diuretics, vasoactive therapy, or mechanical support (e.g., IABP, ultrafiltration); and 3) stroke (ischemic, hemorrhagic, or undetermined), confirmed by a neurologist and/or neuroimaging. All events are independently adjudicated by the Clinical Events Committee (CEC) in a blinded manner according to M-VARC definitions. |
