Treatment and study plan

Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair

Device

Mitral valve repair with the CathHELIX Transcatheter Mitral Annuloplasty System in subjects with functional Mitral Regurgitation

Primary outcomes

  1. Technical Device Success (measured at the exit of the catheterization laboratory) is defined per Mitral Valve Academic Research Consortium (MVARC).

    Time frame: Periprocedural

    Technical Device Success: MVARC Technical Success is a definition from the Mitral Valve Academic Research Consortium for evaluating transcatheter mitral valve interventions, defined at the exit from the procedure room and requires all of the following conditions to be met:

    • The patient is alive.
    • There was successful access, delivery, and retrieval of the device delivery system.
    • The first intended device was successfully deployed and correctly positioned.
    • There was freedom from emergency surgery or reintervention related to the device or access procedure.
