Learning Objectives:
- Explore a case of afterload mismatch or right ventricular dysfunction post-tricuspid intervention to discuss mechanisms like sudden TR reduction and preoperative pulmonary hypertension assessment.
- Evaluate rescue approaches in the case, including volume management and inotropic support, with focus on monitoring for acute right heart failure.
- Discuss preventive insights from the case, such as patient selection criteria and gradual procedural techniques to mitigate right ventricular strain and improve outcomes.
