Filter by:The aim of our study is to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying remodeling of the tricuspid valve apparatus in patients with ITF and isolated AF, in comparison with patients with ITF from right ventricular remodeling, patients with atriogenic MI and left ventricular remodeling. To achieve these aims, markers obtained from cardiovascular imaging methods, such as 3D echocardiogram, and biomarkers isolated from the peripheral blood of the study participants will be considered.
The purpose of this investigation is to see if the TRICENTO Valved Stent Graft implant reduces tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and improves the symptoms and quality of life in 15 participants with carcinoid heart disease, and who are not able to have a new valve via a surgical procedure.
The purpose of this research is to assess the severity of tricuspid regurgitation (a disorder in which the tricuspid valve in the heart does not close tight enough) using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a long-overdue valvular pathology. Its prevalence is significant and increasing with the aging of the population. It is often a consequence of chronic left cardiac pathologies or atrial fibrillation. Surgical treatment is recommended in severe symptomatic TR or when the tricuspid annulus is dilated with TR identified prior to scheduled left heart valve surgery. TR are mainly secondary (complicating left heart disease, pulmonary hypertension, atrial fibrillation and atrial dilatation) and pose a difficult problem related to the prognosis. The risk of death or hospitalization is high under medical treatment. Nevertheless, the surgical results are disappointing with significant morbidity and mortality, which are increased by associated comorbidities that are frequent in these sorts of patients. The benefit-risk assessment of surgery is limited by multiple confounders. This justifies the evaluation of alternative methods aimed at correcting TR with less interventional risk. The Clip for the tricuspid valve has been evaluated in the TRILUMINATE trial (inclusion of 85 patients with moderate-to-severe symptomatic TR with a 6-month follow-up). The Triclip system appears to be safe and effective at reducing tricuspid regurgitation by at least one grade. This reduction could translate to significant clinical improvement at 6 months post-procedure. It justified the European Conformity (CE) mark obtention. A very similar system for the mitral valve (Mitraclip) was previously tested in the randomized EVEREST II study against conventional surgery. The results of the EVEREST II trial justified the recourse to percutaneous edge-to edge mitral repair in patients with primary mitral regurgitation when the patient is contraindicated to conventional surgery. The Mitra-FR study made it possible to study the role of Mitraclip for treating patient suffering from a secondary mitral insufficiency. It leads to the implementation of this technique in selected patients. For secondary TR, several series underscored its prevalence and its clinical consequences. TR treatment justifies the proposal for a randomized study. As a matter of fact, evidence for treating are seriously lacking. Surgical surveys report hospital mortality ~ 8.8%. It, therefore, seems necessary to conduct a study as robust as possible to evaluate the contribution of clip for the tricuspid valve (as an innovative percutaneous technique) compared to conventional pharmacological treatment in patients who are unsuitable for a surgical isolated correction of the TR and who has suitable anatomy for clip for the tricuspid valve. It will be necessary to demonstrate clinical, functional (quality of life), echocardiographic and biological benefit of the percutaneous treatment vs optimized medical treatment alone.
This is a postmarket clinical follow up study on the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System and the Edwards PASCAL Precision Transcatheter Valve Repair System in transcatheter tricuspid valve repair.
The present study includes patients with tricuspid regurgitation and heart failure diagnosed with echocardiography. The aim is to evaluate the physical performance of patients with tricuspid regurgitation and heart failure, to observe the course of the diseases and to allow a better understanding of new therapy options.
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR), which in close to 90% of cases is functional as a consequence of left-sided heart failure, left heart valve abnormalities or pulmonary (vascular) disease, is associated with adverse patient outcomes . Due to the increased risk of surgical tricuspid valve repair or replacement compared to surgery in left-sided valve disease TR is often undertreated. Treatment options for the tricuspid valve have so far been limited. Conservative therapy over longer. periods usually results in refractoriness to diuretic treatment. Surgical therapy is associated with a high rate of in-hospital mortality (8.8%), the cause of which is not yet fully understood but may partly be explained by the hemodynamic challenge that cardiopulmonary bypass imposes on the often already-dysfunctional right ventricle. Recently, transcatheter strategies have been developed and have shown promising results. Despite the promising data it has so far not be determined objectively whether interventional treatment of isolated tricuspid regurgitation improves exercise capacity and what role right ventricular function plays in this setting.
The bRIGHT EU PAS study is an observational real-world study evaluating severe tricuspid regurgitation patients treated with the Abbott TriClip™ device (bRIGHT EU Post-Approval Study).
A prospective, single-arm, multi-center first-in-human (FIH) study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Innoventric Trillium™ Stent Graft System. Twenty (20) patients in 8 investigational sites will be enrolled. All enrolled study patients will be assessed at baseline, during the procedure, at discharge, after 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 1.5 years, 2 years, and 3 years following the index procedure.
