EDGE-TO-EDGE REPAIR (TEER)

 

TriClip™ Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (TEER) offers a minimally invasive
treatment option for patients with symptomatic, severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR)
who are at high risk for surgery.1

A STATE-OF-THE-ART TREATMENT OPTION FOR PATIENTS AT HIGH RISK FOR SURGERY

TriClip™ TEER is a low risk,5 minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment option for symptomatic patients with severe Tricuspid Regurgitation (TR) who are at high risk for surgery and are not seeing improvement from medical therapy alone.

TriClip™ Patient Story: Cruz

TriClip™ Patient Story: Narcisa

TriClip™ Patient Story: Javier

  • Transcatheter beating heart procedure - no cardiopulmonary bypass
  • Allows for real-time positioning and repositioning to optimize TR reduction
  • Femoral venous access
  • Can be used in a standard cath lab or hybrid room
  • No pre-procedural CT required
  • Fast recovery times; many patients go home the next day4
Patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation have significantly impaired quality of life12
  • Shortness of breath
  • Peripheral edema
  • Ascites
  • Fatigue
  • Declining exercise capacity
Current treatment options have limitations

For many patients with Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation (FTR), medical management is not enough.

MEDICAL MANAGEMENT FOR TR HAS LITTLE IMPACT ON SURVIAL6

66%

of patients with severe FTR die within 5 years of medical management6


Most patients receive medical management until right heart failure or end-organ dysfunction appears.7

Surgery is high risk and often denied8,9

Surgery for TR is seldom performed. Factors prohibiting surgery include:

  • High operative risk (6–16% in-hospital mortality)
  • Multiple comorbidities
  • Advanced age
  • Lack of effectiveness
