Summary

The current management of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is either conservative (by medication) or by surgery, usually in concomitant with other valves repair or replacement. TR can worsen or appear late after successful mitral valve surgery which portends a poor prognosis. However, standard surgical approaches requiring cardiopulmonary bypass and especially second surgery have an excessive risks. Thus many patients are denied surgery because of unfavorable risk-benefit balance. Therefore there is a need for novel devices enabling interventional cardiologists and cardiothoracic surgeons to perform tricuspid annuloplasty by transcatheter methods. Cardioband replicates established surgical techniques (e.g., annuloplasty) using transfemoral approach, without sutures and with adjusted on the beating heart. Similar to the approved indication for mitral annuloplasty. The Cardioband System is expected to allow for treatment of patients that would otherwise not undergo Tricuspid valve repair due to the invasiveness of current techniques.

Eligibility Criteria
