Wilkins score of ——- predicts better outcomes after a catheter-based balloon mitral valvotomy procedure
[A] < 6[B] < 8
[C] > 6
[D] > 8
Better outcomes after a catheter-based balloon mitral valvotomy procedure
Wilkins score
The Wilkins score grades each of the components of the mitral apparatus from 1 to 4
- Leaflet mobility
- Thickness
- Calcification
- Impairment of the subvalvular apparatus.
Padial score
The Padial score grades the leaflet thickening (separately), the commissural calcification, and the subvalvular disease from 1 to 4.
cut-off value of 10 in Padial MR score gave 90% sensitivity and 97% specificity to predict the development of severe MR post-BMV.
Better outcomes after a catheter-based balloon mitral valvotomy procedure
The Wilkins score of less than 8, Padial scores of less than 10, and less than moderate regurgitation have better outcomes after a catheter-based balloon mitral valvotomy procedure.
