Popis: Abstract Yeo’s index, the product of the mitral leaflet separation index and dimensionless index of mitral valve (MV), was recently described to accurately identify severe rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS). We assess the association between Yeo’s index and clinical outcomes in patients with rheumatic MS. We studied 297 patients with rheumatic MS. Clinical and echocardiographic data were obtained from the electronic medical record and Yeo’s index was measured in all cases. The outcome studied was a composite of all cause death, heart failure (HF) hospitalisation, MV intervention and stroke or transient ischaemic attack. We also performed subgroup analysis of patients without pre-existing atrial fibrillation (AF) to assess for association with new onset AF. The median follow up was 6.3 years; 145 patients (48.8%) developed the composite outcome. Yeo’s index (p
