First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study will follow 90 people with mitral valve prolapse who are already scheduled for mitral valve surgery. Researchers will use heart scans and 7-day rhythm monitors before and 6 months after surgery to see if the procedure reduces dangerous heart rhythms and scarring. The goal is to better understand why some patients develop arrhythmias and how surgery might help.
