Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Percentage of Subject's With Freedom From All-cause Mortality, Disabling Stroke and Life-threatening Bleeding
Subject's freedom from all-cause mortality, disabling stroke and life-threatening bleeding at 30 days post-implant.
30 days
Number of Subjects With Procedural Success During the First 30 Days
Subject's procedural success at 30 days post-treatment, as measured by: Technical success (defined as implantation of at least three chords, leaving the operating room and no conversion to open heart surgery) with reduction of MR to less than or equal to mild and the absence of major device or procedure-related SAEs.
30 days
Study Arms (1)
HARPOON MVRS
OTHERSubjects who were treated with the HARPOON MVRS.
Interventions
Repair of the chordae tendinae in the mitral valve.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Subject is \> 18 years old
- Presence of severe MR as read on a transthoracic echocardiographic study
- Mitral leaflet coaptation surface is sufficient to reduce mitral regurgitation without undue leaflet tension (approximate leaflet to gap ratio of 2:1) based on the judgment of the patient eligibility committee and the operating surgeon
- Degenerative mitral valve disease with mid-segment P2 prolapse
- Patient is able to sign informed consent and able to return for follow-up and is capable of participating in all testing associated with this clinical investigation
You may not qualify if:
- Patient is of the age where further growth is expected
- Active endocarditis
- Left ventricular or left atrial appendage thrombus
- Severe mitral annular and/or leaflet calcification
- Cannot tolerate procedural anticoagulation or post-procedure antiplatelet regimen
- Mitral stenosis
- Functional Mitral Valve disease
- Previous mitral valve replacement surgery
- Fragile or thinning apex
- Contraindications to transoesophageal echocardiography (atlantoaxial disease, severe generalized cervical arthritis, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, significant dysphagia and odynophagia, has received extensive radiation to the mediastinum)
- Patient is pregnant or lactating
