Gilbert Tang, MD, and Sean Pinney, MD, join Randy Martin, MD for a discussion of the current thinking about the epidemiology of secondary mitral valve regurgitation and the intertwining of this condition with heart failure. Drs. Tang and Pinney highlight the importance of a team approach; including imaging specialists, heart failure experts, and surgeons/interventionalists in the diagnosis and management of patients with secondary MR and heart failure. 

They share current treatment options and discuss the latest on guideline directed medical management, as well as transcatheter and surgical therapies. 

All members of the heart team will benefit from this new information and guidance as how to diagnose and manage these patients.
