Tricuspid regurgitation(TR)is a common heart valve disease traditionally treated with surgery,which is invasive and high-risk.Recently,transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention(TTVI)technology has achieved major breakthroughs.It is being promoted internationally and several expert consensus documents have been launched abroad.However,in China,there is still a lack of consensus documents in this regard.In order to promote the safe,standardized and healthy development of this technology,this expert consensus is specially compiled.This consensus will introduce anatomy,epidemiology,classification and pathogenesis of TR,the traditional treatment and TTVI,preoperative evaluation and clinical efficacy endpoints.We sort out ten core viewpoints so that readers can quickly grasp the essence of the consensus.

In recent years,the number of Chest Pain Centers in China has increased rapidly.As of December 2023,there were 5 725 registered units of Chest Pain Centers nationwide,2 660 of which had passed the acceptance,and a total of 14.67 million patients with acute chest pain were treated.The Chest Pain Centers treated more than 3.18 million patients with acute chest pain in 2023,including more than 690 000 patients with acute myocardial infarction,and achieved positive results:significantly increasing the proportion of reperfusion therapy for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients,ensuring the treatment of myocardial infarction patients in a short time,shortening the length of patient hospitalization,and reducing the hospitalization costs and mortality of patients.Through the construction of chest pain center,the treatment process was significantly optimized and the prognosis of patients was improved.At present,the construction and quality control of Chest Pain Centers still need to be further promoted.In some areas,the construction proportion of Chest Pain Centers and the level of diagnosis and treatment of chest pain need to be improved,patient delay is still an important challenge for the treatment of acute chest pain in China.

Excessive sodium/salt intake is the leading dietary risk factor for the loss of healthy life in the Chinese population. The "Healthy China 2030" Action Plan set the goal of reducing salt intake by 20% by 2030. However, salt intake in China is still at a very high level in the world, with adults reaching 11 g/d, more than twice the recommended limit of 5 g/d. The current policies and action plans of China have targeted catering workers, children, adolescents, and home chefs in salt, oil, and sugar reduction actions. However, there are still obvious deficiencies in the coordinated promotion and implementation. This study, therefore, proposed a set of comprehensive strategies (named CHRPS that is composed of communication and education, salt reduction in home cooking, salt reduction in restaurants, reducing salt content in pre-packaged food, and surveillance and evaluation) and key implementation points for further deepening the salt reduction action in China. These strategies were developed based on the main sources of dietary sodium for Chinese residents, the status of "knowledge, attitude and practice" in salt reduction, evidence of effective intervention measures, existing policies and requirements, and the salt reduction strategies of the World Health Organization and experience from some other countries. As a scientific reference, the CHRPS strategies will help the government and relevant organizations quickly implement salt reduction work and facilitate the earlier realization of China's salt reduction goal.
