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
- Shortness of breath
- Peripheral edema
- Ascites
- Fatigue
- Declining exercise capacity
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 for TR is seldom performed. Factors prohibiting surgery include:
- High operative risk (6–16% in-hospital mortality)
- Multiple comorbidities
- Advanced age
- Lack of effectiveness
