This study aimed to evaluate whether baseline tricuspid regurgitation (TR) impacted clinical outcomes after mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) for severe secondary mitral regurgitation (MR).Baseline TR is common among patients undergoing M-TEER for secondary MR, although its impact on clinical outcomes is unclear.The Cochrane Library, PubMed/MEDLINE, and Google Scholar were searched according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines from January 1, 2011 through January 31, 2021. Randomized controlled trials and nonrandomized prospective studies that evaluated baseline TR by echocardiography before M-TEER for MR were included. The primary outcome was a composite of mortality and heart failure hospitalization (HFH) at 1-year.A total of 5 studies (n = 1395 patients) were included in the primary analysis. Concurrent moderate/severe TR was associated with a worse 1 year composite of all-cause mortality and HFH (OR: 2.13; 95% CI: 1.12-4.05; p = 0.02) after M-TEER for severe MR. In studies that reported TR grade pre- and post-M-TEER for severe MR, 32% of patients with moderate-to-severe baseline TR had a reduction in TR severity after the intervention.Baseline moderate-to-severe TR was associated with increased 1-year mortality and heart failure hospitalizations among patients undergoing M-TEER. Further randomized studies are needed to assess the interaction of TR among patients undergoing M-TEER.
