Summary

This study compares a less invasive procedure (TEER) to standard open-heart surgery for people with severe mitral regurgitation, a condition where a heart valve doesn't close properly. About 600 adults will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments. The main goal is to see which approach better helps the heart recover and improve survival.
