MITRACLIP
MITRAL VALVE REPAIR
TRANSCATHETER
EDGE-TO-EDGE REPAIR (TEER)

 

MitraClip™ is the first minimally invasive TEER* therapy that delivers a life-changing treatment option for selected patients with Primary Mitral Regurgitation (PMR) or Secondary Mitral Regurgitation (SMR) who would otherwise go untreated.1,2 MitraClip™ is the standard of care in TMVr built on proven mitral valve therapy with over 20 years of experience, an extensive body of clinical evidence, and more than 200,000 patients treated worldwide.3

*TEER is also referred to TMVr (Transcatheter Mitral Valve repair)

A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE IS POSSIBLE FOR YOUR PATIENTS WITH MR

MitraClip™ TEER is a minimally invasive treatment option for select patients with:

Significant PMR patients who
are at a prohibitive surgical risk

Significant SMR patients who remain
symptomatic despite maximally tolerated
guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT)

THE CATALYST FOR A SIGNIFICANT EVOLUTION
IN MR GUIDELINE

MitraClip™ is the first TMVr (TEER) therapy recommended by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) and European Society of Cardiology/European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery (ESC/EACTS) guidelines and the Asian Pacific Society of Cardiology (APSC) consensus recommendations for selected PMR and SMR* patients. The guidelines support aggressive monitoring and early action, with the goal of preventing complications due to Left Ventricular (LV) volume overload.4,10-12

KEY PATIENT INFORMATION

MR: PATIENT RESOURCES

*Severely symptomatic SMR patients despite optimal GDMT.

SEVERE MR IS VASTLY UNDERTREATED


  • Surgical intervention not offered or denied


    49% of patients with symptomatic severe MR were not operated due to age, co-morbidities, or impaired LV.5
    If left untreated, MR initiates a cascade of events leading to death, with 1-year mortality up to 57%.6
