Pilot Study to test the usefulness of contractile reserve during dobutamine and exercise echo to predict recovery after mitral valve repair mitral valve prolapse
ISRCTN ISRCTN06298974
ClinicalTrials.gov identifier
Public title Pilot Study to test the usefulness of contractile reserve during dobutamine and exercise echo to predict recovery after mitral valve repair mitral valve prolapse
Scientific title
Acronym N/A
