High and Intermediate Risk Degenerative Mitral Regurgitation Treatment: A Trial Comparing MitraClip® to Surgical Therapy (HiRiDe)
Mitral Valve Insufficiency
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Mitral Valve Insufficiency focused on measuring MitraClip®, MR, DMR, high-risk patients, mitral regurgitation, surgery, intermediate risk patients
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Gender: Both, male and female
- Minimum Age: 18 Years
- Maximum Age: no maximum age
- Severe (4+) DMR (degenerative mitral regurgitation), or 3+ DMR
- NYHA Functional Class III or IV
- Mitral valve anatomy should be suitable for both MitraClip® and Mitral valve surgery (repair or replacement)
- Subjects meet the following conditions:
Age >18 and high or intermediate risk patients with an STS calculated mortality (using the repair calculator) >=3% and <=10% or as determined by the local Heart Team (which should include a surgeon and a cardiologist), based on the evidence that STS risk calculator may not identify all possible risk factors
- patient is operable
- Signed by the subject and dated approved informed consent prior to any study related procedure
- Available and able to return to study site for post-procedural follow-up examination
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patient incapable to approve the informed consent or Emergency Cases
- functional mitral valve pathology
- evolving endocarditis or active endocarditis in the last 3 months
- heavily calcified leaflets
- subjects in whom transesophageal echocardiography is contraindicated
- subjects in whom transseptal catheterisation is contraindicated
- presence of any known life threatening (non-cardiac major or progressive disease), non-cardiac disease that will limit the subject's life expectancy to less than one year
- currently participating in the study of an investigational drug or device
- untreated clinically significant CAD requiring revascularisation
- any percutaneous coronary, carotid, endovascular intervention or carotid surgery within 30 days or any coronary or endovascular surgery within 3 months
- prior mitral valve leaflet surgery or any currently implanted prosthetic mitral valve, or any prior transcatheter mitral valve procedure
- concomitant and significant aortic or tricuspid valve pathology
- CVA or TIA within 6 months or severe carotid stenosis (>70% assessed by Ultrasound)
- contraindication or known allergy to device's components, aspirin, anti-coagulation therapy or contrast media that cannot be adequately managed with premedication

MitraClip® Therapy
Surgery
MitraClip® system is a CE marked medical device, which consists of two parts (Clip Delivery System and Steerable Guide Catheter). It is a single sized, percutaneously implanted mechanical Clip. The MitraClip® device grasps and coapts the mitral valve leaflets resulting in fixed approximation of the mitral leaflets throughout the cardiac cycle. The procedure is performed in the cardiac catheterisation laboratory with echocardiographic and fluoroscopic guidance while the patient is under general anaesthesia.
