Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair of Functional Mitral Regurgitation in Heart Failure - The COAPT Trial - report from ACC2023

Professor Gregg Stone explains details on the COAPT trial which set out to assess the safety and efficacy of transcatheter mitral leaflet approximation using MitraClip among symptomatic heart failure patients with secondary mitral regurgitation. In the COAPT trial, compared with GDMT alone, patients with HF and severe secondary mitral regurgitation undergoing TEER with the percutaneous edge-to edge repair system had lower 2-year rates of fatal and nonfatal all-cause hospitalizations and HFH and spent more time alive and out of the hospital.
