OBJECTIVE Conventional or minimally invasive surgical mitral valve repair (MVR) is the gold-standard treatment for severe mitral regurgitation (MR) of any etiology. Given its good safety profile, trans-catheter MVR with the MitraClip™ device is used increasingly for high-risk or inoperable patients. We report our experience with failed MitraClip™ therapy and its impact on subsequent surgical st...

This population encompasses a sizable portion of individuals who are also at high risk for drug-drug interactions due to their need for multiple medications. In general, statins are...
متن کاملClinical outcomes through 12 months in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation treated with the MitraClip® device in the ACCESS-EUrope Phase I trial.
OBJECTIVES Percutaneous treatment with the MitraClip device represents an alternative option for selected patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) considered ineligible for surgery due to contraindications or high surgical risk by an inter-disciplinary heart team. We describe 12-month outcomes following treatment with the MitraClip device in DMR patients. METHODS The MitraClip Th...
