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.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Adults with severe secondary mitral regurgitation with or without multivessel coronary artery disease who were symptomatic for congestive heart failure and unresponsive to medical therapy were eligible for surgical repair or replacement combined or not to coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). The severity of SMR was evaluated by transthoracic echocardiography, which was performed using European Society of Echocardiography criteria. Severe MR was defined as an effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) of at least 0.4 cm2 or by a combination of adjunctive echocardiographic quantification methods according to guidelines. MR grade was defined according to EROA.
