RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is known to be associated with poor quality of life and increased risk of death when left untreated. OBJECTIVES: We sought to report the 1-year clinical outcomes of subjects treated by tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with the TriClip system (Abbott Cardiovascular) in a contemporary real-world setting. METHODS: The bRIGHT (An Observational Real-World Study Evaluating Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation Patients Treated With the Abbott TriClip Device) postapproval study is a prospective, single-arm, open-label, multicenter postmarket registry conducted at 26 sites in Europe, with central event adjudication and echocardiographic core-laboratory assessment. RESULTS: Enrolled subjects (n = 511) were elderly (79 ± 7 years) with significant comorbidities. A total of 88% had baseline massive or torrential TR, and 80% of subjects were in NYHA functional class III/IV. TR was reduced to moderate or less in 81% at 1 year. Significant improvements in NYHA functional class (21% to 75% I/II, P < 0.0001) and Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) score (19 ± 26-point improvement, P <0.0001) were observed at 1 year. One-year mortality was significantly lower in subjects who achieved moderate or lower TR at 30 days; however, there was no difference in mortality among subjects who achieved moderate, mild, or trace TR at 30 days. In addition to TR reduction at 30 days, baseline serum creatinine and baseline right ventricular tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (RV TAPSE) were independently associated with mortality at 1 year (OR: 2.169; 95% CI: 1.494-3.147; P < 0.0001; OR: 0.636; 95% CI: 0.415-0.974; P = 0.0375). Mortality was not associated with baseline TR grade or with center volume. CONCLUSIONS: Tricuspid TEER using the TriClip system was safe and effective through 1 year for subjects with significant TR and advanced disease in a diverse real-world population.

BACKGROUND: Mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) is a guideline-recommended treatment option for patients with severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR). Outcomes with the PASCAL system in a post-market setting have not been established. OBJECTIVES: The authors report 30-day and 1-year outcomes from the MiCLASP (Transcatheter Repair of Mitral Regurgitation with Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System) European post-market clinical follow-up study. METHODS: Patients with symptomatic, clinically significant MR were prospectively enrolled. The primary safety endpoint was clinical events committee-adjudicated 30-day composite major adverse event rate and the primary effectiveness endpoint was echocardiographic core laboratory-assessed MR severity at discharge compared with baseline. Clinical, echocardiographic, functional, and quality-of-life outcomes were assessed at 1 year. RESULTS: A total of 544 patients were enrolled (59% functional MR, 30% degenerative MR). The 30-day composite major adverse event rate was 6.8%. MR reduction was significant from baseline to discharge and sustained at 1 year with 98% of patients achieving MR ≤2+ and 82.6% MR ≤1+ (all P < 0.001 vs baseline). One-year Kaplan-Meier estimate for survival was 87.3%, and freedom from heart failure hospitalization was 84.3%. Significant functional and quality-of-life improvements were observed at 1 year, including 71.6% in NYHA functional class I/II, 14.4-point increase in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire score, and 24.2-m improvement in 6-minute walk distance (all P < 0.001 vs baseline). CONCLUSIONS: One-year outcomes of this large cohort from the MiCLASP study demonstrate continued safety and effectiveness of M-TEER with the PASCAL system in a post-market setting. Results demonstrate high survival and freedom from heart failure hospitalization, significant and sustained MR reduction, and improvements in symptoms, functional capacity, and quality of life.

BACKGROUND: The safety profile of transcatheter tricuspid valve (TTV) repair techniques is well established, but residual tricuspid regurgitation (TR) remains a concern. OBJECTIVES: The authors sought to assess the impact of residual TR severity post-TTV repair on survival. METHODS: We evaluated the survival rate at 2 years of 613 patients with severe isolated functional TR who underwent TTV repair in TRIGISTRY according to the severity of residual TR at discharge using a 3-grade (mild, moderate, and severe) or 4-grade scheme (mild, mild to moderate, moderate to severe, and severe). RESULTS: Residual TR was none/mild in 33%, moderate in 52%, and severe in 15%. The 2-year adjusted survival rates significantly differed between the 3 groups (85%, 70%, and 44%, respectively; restricted mean survival time [RMST]: P = 0.0001). When the 319 patients with moderate residual TR were subdivided into mild to moderate (n = 201, 33%) and moderate to severe (n = 118, 19%), the adjusted survival rate was also significantly different between groups (85%, 80%, 55%, and 44%, respectively; RMST: P = 0.001). Survival was significantly lower in patients with moderate to severe residual TR compared to patients with mild to moderate residual TR (P = 0.006). No difference in survival rates was observed between patients with no/mild and mild to moderate residual TR (P = 0.67) or between patients with moderate to severe and severe residual TR (P = 0.96). CONCLUSIONS: The moderate residual TR group was heterogeneous and encompassed patients with markedly different clinical outcomes. Refining TR grade classification with a more granular 4-grade scheme improved outcome prediction. Our results highlight the importance of achieving a mild to moderate or lower residual TR grade during TTV repair, which could define a successful intervention.

AIMS: T-TEER is an effective therapy for the treatment of tricuspid regurgitation (TR). However, the effects of leaflets clipping on tricuspid valve annulus (TA) have not been investigated in detail. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) on TA diameter. METHODS AND RESULTS: The TriValve registry (Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Therapies, NCT03416166) collected 556 patients from 22 European and North American centres undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions from 2016 to 2022. Patients undergoing T-TEER with available pre- and post-procedural data on TA diameter measured in the apical 4-chamber view on transthoracic echocardiography were selected for this study. Primary end-point was the reduction of TA diameter after T-TEER. A total of 186 patients were included in the study. In 115 patients (62%) TA diameter was reduced by at least 1 mm as compared to baseline. A significant reduction of TA dimension was observed following T-TEER (mean 2.3 mm [from pre-procedural diameter 46.7 mm to post-procedural diameter 44.4 mm], p < 0.001). In particular, the greatest reduction was observed in those with T-TEER in antero-septal commissure (mean 2.7 mm [from 47.1 mm to 44.4 mm], p < 0.001) as compared to those combining both antero-septal and postero-septal commissures (mean 1.4, from 46.0 mm to 44.6 mm, P = 0.06). A significant reduction of TA dimension was recorded in patients with 1 or 2 clips implanted but not in those patients with ≥3 clips implanted. CONCLUSIONS: In almost two third of patients T-TEER reduces TA diameter in addition to leaflet approximation. CONDENSED ABSTRACT: The effects of tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) on tricuspid valve annulus (TA) have not been studied in details. This study investigates TA diameter as measured in apical 4-chamber view on transthoracic echocardiography before and after T-TEER. A total of 186 patients from the TriValve registry were included in the study. The study results show that 62% of patients have a TA reduction after T-TEER, especially in those receiving 1 or 2 clips in the antero-septal commissure. These suggest that T-TEER reduces tricuspid regurgitation not only by approximation of leaflets, but also by TA diameter reduction.

BACKGROUND: The impact of intraprocedural results following transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in primary mitral regurgitation (MR) is controversial. OBJECTIVES: This study sought to investigate the prognostic impact of intraprocedural residual mitral regurgitation (rMR) and mean mitral valve gradient (MPG) in patients with primary MR undergoing TEER. METHODS: The PRIME-MR (Outcomes of Patients Treated With Mitral Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair for Primary Mitral Regurgitation) registry included consecutive patients with primary MR undergoing TEER from 2008 to 2022 at 27 international sites. Clinical outcomes were assessed according to intraprocedural rMR and mean MPG. Patients were categorized according to rMR (optimal result: ≤1+, suboptimal result: ≥2+) and MPG (low gradient: ≤5 mm Hg, high gradient: > 5 mm Hg). The prognostic impact of rMR and MPG was evaluated in a Cox regression analysis. The primary endpoint was 2-year all-cause mortality or heart failure hospitalization. RESULTS: Intraprocedural rMR and mean MPG were available in 1,509 patients (median age = 82 years [Q1-Q3: 76.0-86.0 years], 55.1% male). Kaplan-Meier analysis according to rMR severity showed significant differences for the primary endpoint between rMR ≤1+ (29.1%), 2+ (41.7%), and ≥3+ (58.0%; P < 0.001), whereas there was no difference between patients with a low (32.4%) and high gradient (42.1%; P = 0.12). An optimal result/low gradient was achieved in most patients (n = 1,039). The worst outcomes were observed in patients with a suboptimal result/high gradient. After adjustment, rMR ≥2+ was independently linked to the primary endpoint (HR: 1.87; 95% CI: 1.32-2.65; P < 0.001), whereas MPG >5 mm Hg was not (HR: 0.78; 95% CI: 0.47-1.31; P = 0.35). CONCLUSIONS: Intraprocedural rMR but not MPG independently predicted clinical outcomes following TEER for primary MR. When performing TEER in primary MR, optimal MR reduction seems to outweigh the impact of high transvalvular gradients.

BACKGROUND: Data on the prognostic role of the TRI-SCORE in patients undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI) are limited. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of the TRI-SCORE in predicting outcomes of patients undergoing TTVI. METHODS: TriValve (Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Therapies) is a large multicenter multinational registry including patients undergoing TTVI. The TRI-SCORE is a risk model recently proposed to predict in-hospital mortality after tricuspid valve surgery. The TriValve population was stratified based on the TRI-SCORE tertiles. The outcomes of interest were all-cause death and all-cause death or heart failure hospitalization. Procedural complications and changes in NYHA functional class were also reported. RESULTS: Among the 634 patients included, 223 patients (35.2%) had a TRI-SCORE between 0 and 5, 221 (34.8%) had 6 or 7, and 190 (30%) had ≥8 points. Postprocedural blood transfusion, acute kidney injury, new atrial fibrillation, and in-hospital mortality were more frequent in the highest TRI-SCORE tertile. Postprocedure length of stay increased with a TRI-SCORE increase. A TRI-SCORE ≥8 was associated with an increased risk of 30-day all-cause mortality and all-cause mortality and the composite endpoint assessed at a median follow-up of 186 days (OR: 3.00; 95% CI: 1.38-6.55; HR: 2.17; 95% CI: 1.78-4.13; HR: 2.08, 95% CI: 1.57-2.74, respectively) even after adjustment for procedural success and EuroSCORE II or Society of Thoracic Surgeons Predicted Risk of Mortality. The NYHA functional class improved across all TRI-SCORE values. CONCLUSIONS: In the TriValve registry, the TRI-SCORE has a suboptimal performance in predicting clinical outcomes. However, a TRISCORE ≥8 is associated with an increased risk of clinical events and a lack of prognostic benefit after successful TTVI.
