First-in-Human Implantation of a New Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement System
Therapeutic options for patients with isolated severe to torrential tricuspid regurgitation have been limited. Because a surgical option is often not attractive, new catheter-based therapies are emerging.

Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Therapy: From Anatomy to Intervention
Nowadays, severe symptomatic tricuspid regurgitation (TR) affects millions of persons worldwide. However, the benefit of surgical correction of isolated secondary TR remains controversial because of the increased risk of periprocedural mortality and ...

A unifying device–cardiovascular interface framework is presented to classify implantable cardiovascular technologies as intracardiovascular blood‐contacting systems or extracardiovascular tissue‐only and blood‐handling architectures. Cross‐class comparison across shared semiquantitative criteria, including blood‐contact burden, biomimicry ...

Echocardiographic Imaging to Guide Tricuspid Interventions
Transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions may offer patients less invasive treatment alternatives to surgery. This review evaluates the use of echocardiography to determine anatomic suitability and guide the 2 most common classes of device currently ...

Early Experience With Evoque Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement in Carcinoid Heart Disease
ABSTRACT Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is nearly universal in carcinoid heart disease (CHD), but surgical replacement carries significant risk, and CHD was excluded from the landmark TRISCEND II trial. We present seven patients with CHD undergoing Evoque transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) at two tertiary centers.

Resurgence of the Tricuspid Valve: A Comprehensive Review of Transcatheter Interventions
Tricuspid valve, once considered a “forgotten valve,” is experiencing a remarkable resurgence in clinical practice. Previously viewed as a secondary consequence of left-sided heart disease, tricuspid regurgitation is now recognized as an independent ...

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Interventions to Manage Tricuspid Regurgitation: A Narrative Review
Medical devices for tricuspid regurgitation have emerged as viable treatment options for patients who do not respond to drug therapy or who are unsuitable for open-heart surgery due to high surgical risk.
