Inclusion Criteria: * At least 18 years old; * Be willing and able to provide informed consent to participate in the study; * Patients with heart valve disease diagnosed by echocardiography who meet one of the following criteria: 1. Grade II or higher Aortic valve regurgitation: regurgitant jet width \>3 mm, jet width / LVOT diameter ≥25%, jet cross-sectional area/LVOT cross-sectional area ≥5%, effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) ≥0.1 cm², regurgitant volume per beat (R Vol)≥30 ml, or regurgitant fraction (RF) ≥30%. 2. Moderate or higher aortic valve stenosis: peak velocity ≥3.0 m/s, Mean gradient ≥20 mm Hg, aortic valve area ≤1.5 cm², Indexed aortic valve area ≤0.85 cm²/m², or velocity ratio ≤0.50. 3. Grade II or higher mitral valve regurgitation: regurgitant jet width ≥3 mm, regurgitant volume per beat ≥30 ml, regurgitant jet area/left atrial area \>30%, or effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) ≥0.2 cm². 4. Moderate or higher valve stenosis: valve area (specific finding) ≤1.5 cm², or mean gradient (supportive finding) ≥10.0 mmHg. 5. Grade II or higher tricuspid valve regurgitation: regurgitant jet width ≥3 mm, proximal isovelocity surface area ≥6 mm, effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) ≥0.2 cm², or regurgitant volume per beat ≥30 ml. 6. Significant tricuspid valve stenosis: mean pressure gradient ≥5.0 mmHg, inflow time-velocity integral \>60 cm, T1/2 ≥190 ms, or valve area ≤1.0 cm². 7. Grade II or higher pulmonary valve regurgitation: regurgitant jet width \>3 mm, regurgitant volume per beat ≥30 ml, regurgitant fraction ≥30%, or effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) ≥0.1 cm². 8.

Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who are unwilling to accept registration and follow-up; * Patients who cannot cooperate with information collection and follow-up due to mental illness or other conditions; * Patients whose life expectancy is less than 12 months due to non-cardiac diseases (such as cancer, liver disease, kidney disease, or end-stage lung disease).
