Percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve repair for symptomatic high surgical risk patients with significant mitral regurgitation – Short term and one year follow up results from a single center in India

This series reports the safety and feasibility of MitraClip (Abbott Vascular) in 7 high surgical risk Indian patients with symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR). The clip was deployed successfully in all patients, and more than one clip was required in 5. All had reduction in MR to ≤2+. Mean mitral...

Description
Summary:This series reports the safety and feasibility of MitraClip (Abbott Vascular) in 7 high surgical risk Indian patients with symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR). The clip was deployed successfully in all patients, and more than one clip was required in 5. All had reduction in MR to ≤2+. Mean mitral valve gradient was 3.0 ± 0.8 mmHg. At 12 months follow up, all were alive, and the MR grade was 1+ in 6 patients and 2+ in one. Mean MV gradient was 3.4 ± 1.0 mmHg. The modified Kansas City Quality of life (KCQ) analysis revealed significant improvement in their quality of life (p
