The device is positioned directly above the regurgitant jet and advanced across the mitral valve into the LV, with the two arms of the Clip perpendicular to the valve leaflets.

Significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The development of transcatheter valve repair therapies has opened a wide range of opportunities for ...

In patients with a borderline annulus size, the valve was selected based on aortic root size, extent of leaflet calcification and individual life expectancy. The PVL was assessed using transthoracic ...
