  • Abstract
    A technique is presented that allows intraoperative assessment of mitral valve function with the heart filling and actively beating. This technique secures steady coronary perfusion and avoids possible air embolism of the coronary arteries. Repeated assessment and repair during reparative mitral operations are greatly facilitated when this technique is accompanied by warm blood cardioplegia.
