Smidt Heart Institute Physicians Advance Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement

DAIC

Physicians in the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai have pioneered using a catheter-based approach to treat patients with tricuspid valve disease. The first 100 minimally invasive tricuspid procedures were done as part of the TRISCEND II clinical trial. Image by Getty. Image by Getty. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

FDA Advisory Committee Votes in Favor of Abbott’s First-of-its-kind Triclip System to Treat People with a Leaky Tricuspid Heart Valve

DAIC

Food and Drug Administration ( FDA ) confirmed 13 to 1, with 0 abstention that the benefits of Abbott's TriClip™ transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) system outweighed the risks for the treatment of people with tricuspid regurgitation (TR). On the final question of the benefit of TriClip versus the risk, the vote was 13 to 1 in favor.

Tricuspid Valve Repair Existing literature on national surgical outcomes of isolated tricuspid valve repair or replacement is based on data from over a decade ago and may not reflect current practice results. Analysis of 13,587 patients undergoing isolated tricuspid valve surgery from 2017 to 2023 revealed a 5.5%

Abstract 4143671: Transcatheter annuloplasty of tricuspid regurgitation with the K-Clip system: one-year results from the TRISTAR study.

Circulation

At 1 year, echocardiography showed average reductions of annular septolateral diameter by 11.3% (41.9mm vs. 37.1mm, p < 0.001) with increases in stroke volume(60.8±18.5mL Tricuspid regurgitation was reduced to ≤moderate in 82.5% female, mean TRISCORE 5.3±2.1). female, mean TRISCORE 5.3±2.1). 18.5mL vs 67.6±19.8mL,

Outcomes Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis in Patients With Type 0 Bicuspid, Type 1 Bicuspid, and Tricuspid Aortic Valves

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

The study aims to compare the outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement for AS in patients with type 0 bicuspid, type 1 bicuspid, and tricuspid aortic valve anatomy.METHODS:We enrolled consecutive patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement for severe AS between 2012 and 2022 in this single-center retrospective cohort study.

Use of Direct?Acting Oral Anticoagulants in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Significant Tricuspid Regurgitation

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundThere are limited data on the efficacy and safety of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in patients with atrial fibrillation with significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR), which can lead to hepatic dysfunction and intestinal malabsorption.

Implications of tricuspid regurgitation and right ventricular volume overload in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

European Journal of Heart Failure

Abstract Aims The aim of this study was to assess the pathophysiological implications of severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) by using tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) as a model of right ventricular (RV) volume overload relief.
