Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to understand the clinical impact of non-surgical and surgical treatment in atrial fibrillation induced tricuspid regurgitation (AFTR).

Other: Severe tricuspid regurgitation due to atrial fibrillation Subjects will receive standard of care procedure right heart catheterization with a inferior vena caval (IVC) occlusion maneuver. |
Procedure: Inferior Vena Caval (IVC) Occlusion maneuver
During standard of care right heart catheterization (RHC), a second catheter will be inserted next to the catheter that was placed for the RHC in the jugular vein or femoral vein to assess the degree of pericardial restraint from the severe tricuspid regurgitation that may increase left sided filling pressures.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in KCCQ QOL scores [Baseline, 6 months]
The KC Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (0-100 scale) assess subject perception of heart failure limitation on their life; scale of extremely limited, quite a bit limited, moderately limited, slightly limited, not at all limited, limited for other reasons or did not do the activity.
