Novel Mitral Therapies   Guest: Arman Arghami, M.D., M.P.H. Guest: Mayra Guerrero, M.D. Host: Kyle Klarich, M.D.   And the end of this podcast, the listener should understand how to identify new minimally invasive procedures to treat patients with mitral valve disease, delineate the difference between minimally invasive surgery versus percutaneous transcatheter interventions for mitral valve disease, and recognize when to refer patients for mitral valve interventions.   Topics Discussed: What are the minimally invasive intervention options to treat patient with mitral valve disease? Which are the patients who benefit from less invasive procedures? How and when to refer a patient for mitral valve intervention? If a patient had prior mitral valve surgery (repair or replacement) and has recurrent mitral valve disease, is redo mitral surgery always needed? Or can a patient with prior surgery be treated with a transcatheter mitral valve repair or replacement, avoiding the need for repeat surgery?   Connect with Mayo Clinic's Cardiovascular Continuing Medical Education online at https://cveducation.mayo.edu or on Twitter @MayoClinicCV and @MayoCVservices.
