What is Mitral Regurgitation?
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the abnormal reverse flow of blood due to leakage through the mitral valve during each heartbeat. A common heart valve disease, MR affects about 5% of Western populations, and approximately 1% of patients will require medical treatment. MR can be caused by an abnormal mitral valve, called degenerative MR (DMR), preferably treated with valve repair.
