Mashup Score: 7Characteristics and Outcomes of Patients Ineligible for Tricuspid Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair - 2 month(s) ago
Tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) has emerged as a safe and effective therapy for patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR).1 In The Trial to Evaluate Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients Treated with the Tricuspid Valve Repair System (TRILUMINATE), T-TEER reduced TR severity and improved quality of life.1 Severe TR is associated with an increased risk of mortality and morbidity secondary to right ventricle (RV) failure and venous congestion.2 Despite T-TEER being an appealing therapy for patients with severe TR, not all patients screened are suitable candidates for T-TEER.

Mashup Score: 7Characteristics and Outcomes of Patients Ineligible for Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement - 2 month(s) ago
Mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) has proven to be a safe and effective treatment option in patients with primary mitral regurgitation (MR) at high or prohibitive surgical risk or those with secondary MR who remain symptomatic despite guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and have favorable anatomy.1 Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is emerging as an important therapy for patients with symptomatic severe primary or secondary MR who are deemed high surgical risk and have unfavorable anatomy for TEER.
