Aims Treatment with percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (Mitraclip (R) has recently been recommended as an alternative to conventional mitral valve repair for high surgical risk patients with symptomatic severe mitral regurgitation (MR). In this study, we report the first use of Mitraclip (R) therapy in Belgium. Methods and results This prospective registry includes 41 consecutive patients treated with the Mitraclip (R) in two Belgian centres from October 2010 to June 2013. Acute procedural success, in-hospital safety end points and clinical status were analysed on an intention-to-treat basis up to one year after the procedure. In addition, determinants of major adverse cardiac events (MACE, death, surgical mitral valve intervention, and rehospitalization for heart failure) were analysed. Acute procedural success (successful clip placement and reduction of colour Doppler flow MR to = 25% (P=0.05). At one year, MR |
