Abstract
Functional tricuspid regurgitation is a common condition. It is benign in most people when only mild in severity, but when moderate or more in severity, tricuspid regurgitation is associated with reduced survival. If left untreated, moderate tricuspid regurgitation will progress, with impact on symptoms, functional capacity and survival.
