From: 3D vena contracta area after MitraClip© procedure: precise quantification of residual mitral regurgitation and identification of prognostic information

Fig. 4

Functional success of PMVR is more pronounced, when vena contracta area is less reduced then the median of the study sample. n = 29. Median VCAr = 0.1868. Turkey boxplot with + marking the mean. *p < 0.05. VCAr = ratio of vena contracta area immediately after PMVR / before PMVR. 6 MWc = six-minute walk distance after PMVR – before PMVR.
