Predictors of Adverse Outcomes

Endocarditis	Aortic valve >10mm vegetation (Increased risk of embolization) TV- generally good prognosis
Cardiac amyloidosis	DT < 150 ms  Other less validated markers of worse prognosis: LV wall thickness > 15 mm, RV enlargement

Peripartum Cardiomyopathy	LVEF < 30 % LVEDD ≥60mm Elevated troponin ??Abnormal dobutamine stress predicts recurrence
Cardiomyopathy	RV dysfunction Sphericity index < 0.76  Diffuse hypokinesis (RWMA more favorable prognosis) Chemotherapy induced CM (worse prognosis compared with idiopathic)

Pericardiectomy	Post radiation (worst prognosis) **idiopathic- best prognosis
LV thrombus (risk for embolization)	Large pendulous thrombus (>0.8cm2 ) Mobile thrombus
Post MV repair (Risk of SAM)	Co-aptation to septal distance (C-sept) < 2.6 cm Posterior mitral valve leaflet height > 1.5 cm Anterior leaflet/Posterior leaflet height ratio (AL/PL) < 1  Aortic Mitral angle < 130
