Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair

Among patients who received transcatheter edge-to-edge repair, mitral valve surgery was associated with risks for morbidity and mortality that were not negligible, according to researchers, with less than 10% undergoing the procedure.

Transcatheter mitral valve repair improved clinical outcomes in patients with HF across all quartiles of mitral valve gradient, according to new data from the COAPT trial.
