Is Edge-to-Edge Treatment with PASCAL Effective at 3 Years?

Is Edge-to-Edge Treatment with PASCAL Effective at 3 Years?

Mitral regurgitation is the most common valvular heart disease. Its cause is most frequently functional or secondary dysfunction (functional mitral regurgitation, FMR) compared with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR), which is associated with decreased ventricular function, hospitalization for heart failure, and mortality. While medical treatment is effective over extended periods, a significant number of patients cannot

La reparación de la válvula mitral con Mitraclip es segura en pacientes de alto riesgo

Is the PASCAL Device Effective against MitraClip?

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common valvulopathy and full medical treatment at maximal tolerated doses has been shown quite effective to treat it. However, its limited in a group of patients that require valve intervention.  At present, the ideal treatment is surgical valve replacement, which is in many cases is not viable because of

TCT 2022 | CLASP II D TRIAL: Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair for Mitral Regurgitation in Patients at Prohibitive Risk

The CLASP IID study was a prospective randomized study to assess the efficacy and effectiveness of the PASCAL transcatheter valve repair system compared with the MitraClip device for patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) at prohibitive surgical risk. The study included Patients at prohibitive surgical risk, candidates for both devices, with MR 3+ to 4+,

Tricuspid Regurgitation: Edge-to-Edge Treatment with PASCAL

About 4% of the population suffers from tricuspid regurgitation (TR). This disease is associated with hard-to-manage heart failure (HF)—often requiring hospitalization—and with mortality. Surgery in this valve is not simple and has high morbidity and mortality rates due to its comorbidities. Currently, a percutaneous strategy for its resolution is under development, but we still do

CLASP: resultados a 2 años del nuevo dispositivo de reparación Mitral

EuroPCR 2021 | CLASP: 2 Year Outcomes of the New Mitral Valve Repair System

The 2-year outcomes of the transcatheter mitral valve repair system PASCAL have shown high survival and low rehospitalization rates, and durable reduction of mitral valve regurgitation.  These results were provided by the CLASP trial, presented during the EuroPCR scientific sessions and simultaneously published in JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions. The PASCAL system (Edwards) has been authorized for
