Surgical treatment of mitral regurgitation (MR) has evolved from mitral valve replacement
(MVR) to repair (MVRe), because MVRe produces superior long-term outcomes. In addition …

Mitral regurgitation (MR) poses a significant clinical burden in the adult population, which is
expected to increase even more with the ever prolonging life expectancies in developed …

Objectives: This study sought to demonstrate transcatheter deployment of a circumferential
device within the pericardial space to modify tricuspid annular dimensions interactively and …

Devices and methods are disclosed for the treatment or repair of regurgitant cardiac valves,
such as a mitral valve. An illustrative annuloplasty device can be placed in the coronary …

Summary MIRTH (Myocardial Intramural Remodeling by Transvenous Tether) is a
transcatheter ventricular remodeling procedure. A transvenous tension element is placed …

Objective Arterial cannulation is a vital component of endovascular interventions and often
unconventional access approaches are required due to disease complexity. Historically …

Mitral regurgitation (MR) has a high prevalence in older patient populations of industrialized
nations. Common etiologies are structural, degenerative MR and functional MR secondary …

The clip is introduced through a 24F sheath from the right femoral vein into the left atrium via
a transseptal puncture. It is then guided using a series of turning knobs and …

Mitral regurgitation is frequently associated with ventricular dysfunction and carries a high
mortality. Guideline-directed medical therapy, surgical mitral valve repair or replacement …

Objectives: This is an early feasibility clinical test of mitral loop cerclage annuloplasty to treat
secondary mitral valve regurgitation. Background: Secondary mitral regurgitation is …
