Abstract
The cinching tension generated by the suture acts as a compensation force in MA reduction, implying the maximum tension needed to be generated by annuloplasty device to restore normal annular size. The relationship between cinching tension and the corresponding MA geometry will contribute to the development of future TMVR devices and understanding of myocardial contraction function.
