Filter by:Transcatheter mitral valve repair in the form of MitraClip® is a safe and effective alternative to surgical mitral valve repair/replacement in patients with high operative morbidity and mortality risk. Successful MitraClip application depends on intraprocedural quantification of mitral regurgitation and left atrial pressure (LAP) monitoring. The pleth variability index (PVI) is a noninvasive, dynamic index based on analysis of the respiratory variations in the plethysmographic waveform recorded transcutaneously by the pulse oximeter. Studies demonstrate that PVI is accurate in predicting fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated adult patients. In this study, we wish to measure PVI during TMVR and correlate with invasive indices such as left atrial pressure (LAP) and stroke volume variation. Our study hopes to provide a real-time non-invasive alternative to invasive indices to better guide fluid management and improve hemodynamics.
To assess the safety and performance of the Cephea Transseptal Mitral Valve System for the treatment of symptomatic moderate to severe degenerative or functional mitral regurgitation, in patients who are poor candidates for surgery.
Rationale: Severe asymptomatic organic Mitral Valve (MV) regurgitation with preserved left ventricular (LV) function is a challenging clinical entity as data on the recommended treatment strategy for these patients are scarce and conflicting, which is reflected in current guidelines. European guidelines advocate a more conservative strategy i.e. watchful waiting, with yearly echocardiography, whilst American guidelines are more in favour of early surgery to reconstruct the MV, i.e. MV repair (in contrast to MV replacement) in order to prevent future LV dysfunction and complaints. A number of non-randomised trials show a favourable outcome of early surgery: in the study of Enriquez-Sarano et al. for instance, the early surgery strategy has shown to be associated with improved long-term survival, decreased cardiac mortality, and decreased morbidity compared with the conservative management [1]. On the other hand, non-randomised trials describe also that a conservative strategy (i.e. watchful waiting) can be safely accomplished. If facilitated surgery is performed in this population (50% at 10 years follow-up according to Rosenhek et al [2]), it has proven to be eventually associated with good perioperative and postoperative outcome when careful follow-up is being carried out [2]. Objective: To compare early MV repair versus watchful waiting in asymptomatic patients with severe organic mitral valve regurgitation and preserved left ventricular function. Study design: Multicenter, registry trial. Study population: 250 Asymptomatic patients (18-75 years old) with severe organic MV regurgitation and preserved left ventricular function. The current European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines on Valvular Heart Disease will be applied [3]. These guidelines are also used in the Netherlands. Accordingly, patients with an indication for MV surgery will not be included. Intervention: Intervention will be early MV repair compared to a watchful waiting strategy.
The Cardiovalve system is a replacement valve delivered through a transfemoral access and transseptal approach and is intended for symptomatic patients with Mitral regurgitation for whom surgical options are not feasible.
The study aims to analyze the role of left ventricular and left atrial functional parameters by speckle tracking echocardiography in predicting outcome after mitral valve replacement and targeting for early intervention compared to guideline parameters.
Mitral Touch System This device is designed to epicardially reshape the mitral valve annulus without the need for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and open heart access (atriotomy), in patients with left ventricular dilation and ischemic or functional MR (mitral regurgitation (MR)).
This study is to evaluate the safety and technical performance of the Cardiovalve Transfemoral Mitral Valve System with its associated procedure, to minimize mitral regurgitation. Data collected in this clinical study will include 30-day safety and performance of the device and delivery system, and long-term clinical outcomes over a follow-up of 5 years.
The study will test the safety and performance of the Cardiovalve transfemoral mitral valve replacement system in treating patients with severe mitral regurgitation who are at high risk for open chest surgery. The system is comprised of comprised of: 1) an Implant; 2) a Delivery System (DS); and 3) Accessories that are required for the implantation procedure. the procedure is performed under general anesthesia.
To establish the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) who have been determined to be at prohibitive risk for mitral valve surgery by the Heart Team, and in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) on guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT)
This study evaluates the addition of transcatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip device to medical treatment in patients with heart failure and moderate functional mitral regurgitation to determine the impact of left ventricular remodelling and patients' functional capacity.
