Percutaneous Mitral Leaflet Repair
CRC Press (Verlag)
978-1-84184-965-2 (ISBN)
In Percutaneous Mitral Leaflet Repair: MitraClip Therapy for Mitral Regurgitation, international experts discuss the clinical application of percutaneous mitral valve therapies for this subsect of patients, focusing on the MitraClip device. These new therapeutic developments will form an essential component of the interventional cardiologists’ armamentarium in treating MR patients and will be of interest to every practicing cardiologist.
Key topics include:
An overview of the anatomy and pathophysiology of the mitral valvular complex and MR
EVEREST trial outcomes, and the development of percutaneous edge-to-edge repair
Updates on the global experience with this new therapy
Patient selection and the role of percutaneous therapies for high-risk patients
Echocardiographic guidance, including practical tips for the use of transesophageal echocardiography during a procedure
Step-by-step techniques, plus tips and tricks for getting the best results for your patients
Special considerations for treating the returning MR repair patient
Discussion of the European experience since CE approval
Future directions in percutaneous mitral valve therapies
