Authors' objectives: Mitral valve regurgitation (MR) or mitral insufficiency is a common disease, especially among the elderly. MR may be acute or chronic, depending on the underlying pathology: accordingly, it must be distinguished between primary (degenerative) MR (DMR) and secondary (functional) MR (FMR). In recent years new minimally invasive procedures have become available for inoperable or high-risk patients. This assessment seeks to answer questions on the efficacy and safety of mitral valve repair using minimally invasive procedures such as MitraClip® for inoperable patients with DMR or FMR; Carillon® for inoperable patients with FMR; NeoChord DS 1000 for operable patients with DMR.
Authors' recommendations: Two of the evaluated medical devices, NeoChord DS1000 and CARILLON® are still at an early stage of development. The MitraClip® however, was already implanted worldwide in around 23,000 patients before results of comparative studies had been published.
