About
Amar Krishnaswamy is a leading interventional cardiologist whose research centers on valvular heart disease, structural heart interventions, and advanced cardiac imaging. His work has profoundly shaped the understanding of tricuspid and mitral valve pathophysiology, particularly in patients with severe mitral regurgitation. Krishnaswamy’s landmark study on tricuspid annular dimensions provided critical insights into when concomitant tricuspid valve repair is warranted during mitral valve surgery, directly informing clinical guidelines and improving surgical decision-making. His research has been widely cited, reflecting its influence on the field. Beyond this, he has contributed extensively to the development and refinement of transcatheter valve therapies, including TAVR and mitral valve repair techniques. As a prolific author and educator, Krishnaswamy has helped train a generation of interventional cardiologists, and his work continues to drive innovation in structural heart disease management.
