However, EROAPISA has been demonstrated to underestimate TR severity due to reliance on several geometric assumptions. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether correcting for these parameters would improve this underestimation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients with at least mild TR identified on transthoracic echocardiography were included in the study. EROAPISA and EROACORRECTED were compared with quantitative Doppler (EROADOPPLER) and 3-dimensional vena contracta area (3D-VCA). EROAPISA was corrected for flow, leaflet angle, and regurgitant orifice ellipticity (EROACORRECTED). Of 100 patients included in the study, EROAPISA (0.62 \u00b1 0.47\u2005cm2) was significantly lower than EROADOPPLER (1.40 \u00b1 1.11\u2005cm2) and 3D-VCA (1.66 \u00b1 1.18\u2005cm2). EROACORRECTED reduced the underestimation (1.31 \u00b1 1.19\u2005cm2, P = 0.73). Both EROAPISA and EROACORRECTED correlated well with EROADOPPLER (r = 0.81, r = 0.8, P &amp;lt; 0.001 for both) and 3D-VCA (r = 0.76, r = 0.70, P &amp;lt; 0.001 for both), although EROACORRECTED had higher agreement with both methods. EROACORRECTED \u2265 0.75 independently predicted morbidity and mortality on univariate (HR 1.84, CI 1.10\u20133.15, P = 0.02) and multivariate analysis (HR 2.00, CI 1.10\u20133.90, P = 0.04). EROADOPPLER and 3D-VCA \u2265 0.75 were also associated with worse outcomes on multivariate analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
