New heart valve repair device shows promise in early testing

NCT ID NCT03745313

Summary

This early study tested a new device called the PASCAL system, which aims to repair leaky tricuspid heart valves without open-heart surgery. The device was tested in 65 patients with severe valve leakage who still had symptoms despite taking medications. Doctors inserted the repair device through a catheter to see if it could safely reduce the valve leakage and improve patient outcomes.
