Résumé
Data regarding the mortality rate in patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) experiencing sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains scant. To further elucidate this issue in the US population, we analyzed the death records provided in the publicly available Multiple Cause of Death Dataset of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention WONDER (Wide-Ranging Online Data for Epidemiological Research) between 1999 and 2020. In this cohort study, 824 US subjects with MVP died from SCD between 1999 and 2020, representing about the 0.3% of all SCDs. The higher mortality rate was observed among women aged <44 years, of White ethnicity, living in urban areas. In conclusion, although the mortality rate of SCD in patients with MVP remains low among the general population, the identification of demographic features and risk factors for SCD may enable strategies for the risk stratification of MVP.
