Guest: Vidhu Anand, M.B.B.S.

Host: Kyle Klarich, M.D.

 

This episode of Mayo Clinic’s “Interviews With the Experts,” explores new insights into tricuspid regurgitation and its implications for clinical practice. Dr. Vidhu Anand discusses the dynamic nature of TR, its impact on prognosis, and the importance of close monitoring even when the condition appears to improve. The conversation highlights evolving guideline considerations, patient risk stratification, and how AI and machine learning may soon support earlier, more personalized interventions. Listeners will gain practical takeaways on when to escalate care and how to optimize long-term outcomes for TR patients.

 

Topics Discussed:

• How has our understanding of the natural history of tricuspid regurgitation changed, and what does this mean for the way we monitor and counsel patients?

• What are the current indications for intervention in isolated TR?

• How is TR currently classified? Are there any novel classifications based on patient’s risk profile, since comorbidities play an important role in TR?

• Review of Mayo Clinic study using AI/machine learning and outcomes in TR.
