Can MRI predict dangerous heart rhythms in mitral valve prolapse?

NCT ID NCT04852731

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study follows 280 people with mitral valve prolapse over 3 years to see if heart MRI scans and blood tests can predict who will develop dangerous heart rhythms or heart muscle changes. Participants undergo MRI, blood draws, and heart monitoring. The goal is to find early warning signs for serious complications.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could help doctors identify which mitral valve prolapse patients are at higher risk for dangerous heart rhythms, leading to better monitoring and earlier treatment.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It will not test any new drug or therapy, and the findings may not lead to immediate changes in patient care.
