In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Prospective, multicenter, observational study to enroll consecutive patients with functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) with the primary aim to: * Use patients' outcomes as a reference to try to define the threshold values for the different grades of FTR severity; and secondary aims to: * Use 3D echocardiography to assess the relationships among the geometry (size and shape) of the right ventricle, right atrium, tricuspid annulus, and tricuspid leaflets according to the underlying cardiac condition (i.e., atrial fibrillation, pulmonary hypertension, right ventricular cardiomyopathy, congenital heart diseases, etc.) * Assess the accuracy, and incremental diagnostic and prognostic value of a new software package to measure tricuspid annulus and valve geometry * Develop new parameters of FTR severity that take into account the lower momentum of the tricuspid regurgitant jet (compared wi
