The Cardioband transcatheter annular reduction system.

ABSTRACT: Surgical implantation of a complete or incomplete ring to reduce the mitral valve annulus and improve leaflet coaptation is the foundation of valve repair for degenerative and functional mitral and tricuspid regurgitation. The Cardioband system (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA) is a catheter-delivered annular reduction system that mimics the surgical approach. Sequential anchors are used to secure the Cardioband implant from trigone to trigone. The Cardioband implant is contracted under transesophageal guidance until valvular regurgitation is reduced. In the initial clinical experience, the Cardioband system was safely deployed in patients with clinically significant functional mitral regurgitation (MR) and yielded durable MR reduction, improved quality of life, and improved exercise capacity. The early and still-evolving Cardioband experience for tricuspid regurgitation is also promising. The ongoing pivotal ACTIVE Trial is designed to demonstrate the superiority of the Cardioband system to guideline-directed medical therapy in patients with clinically significant functional MR (FMR) using a composite endpoint of mortality, heart failure (HF) hospitalization, quality of life, and exercise capacity.

Project description:BackgroundTranscatheter mitral valve implantation (TMVI) for native mitral valve pathology with severe mitral annular calcification has emerged as an alternative treatment option to conventional mitral valve surgery. The objective of this study was to evaluate patients who were referred for TMVI with severe mitral annular calcification and their procedural outcomes.MethodsRetrospective analysis of patients from 2017 to 2020 referred for TMVI was carried out. Demographic characteristic details; surgical strategy; perioperative complications; and hospital stay, including 30-day and 1-year mortality, were analyzed.ResultsEleven patients were referred for consideration of TMVI. The 8 patients who underwent TMVI had a median age of 74 years (range, 57-80 years), the median Society of Thoracic Surgeons score was 4.6 (range, 2.4-10.9), and European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation II score was 5.2% (2%-10.1%). The median cardiopulmonary bypass time and crossclamp times were 170 minutes (range, 150-248 minutes) and 152 minutes (range, 118-214 minutes), respectively. The median hospital stay was 29 days (range, 2-40 days). Thirty-day in hospital mortality was 12%, whereas 1-year mortality was 25%. There was symptomatic improvement with downgrade of New York Heart Association functional class from III or IV to I or II. The 3 patients who were turned down had a median age of 73 years, median Society of Thoracic Surgeons score was 13.4, and median European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation II score was 5.72%. They were alive at 12 months follow-up from the date of surgical assessment; however, all with New York Heart Association functional class III or IV symptoms.ConclusionsWe describe a series demonstrating the technical consideration and capability of transatrial TMVI to treat mitral annular calcification and native mitral valve disease. Our results are favorable when compared with TMVI global registry data for transseptal or transapical approach.

Project description:Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement with supra-annular transcatheter heart valves has been adopted in patients with degenerated surgical aortic valves. The next generation self-expanding Evolut PRO valve has not been evaluated in patients with surgical valve failure. Methods and Results Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement in degenerated surgical aortic valve procedures using the Evolut R or Evolut PRO transcatheter heart valves in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons and American College of Cardiology Transcatheter Valve Therapy Registry between April 2015 and June 2019 were evaluated. Transcatheter valve performance was evaluated by clinical site echocardiography. In-hospital, 30-day, and 1-year clinical outcomes were based on the Society of Thoracic Surgeons-American College of Cardiology-Transcatheter Valve Therapy registry definitions. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in degenerated surgical aortic valve was performed in 5897 patients (5061 [85.8%] patients received the Evolut R valve and 836 [14.2%] received the Evolut PRO valve). Thirty-day transcatheter heart valves hemodynamic performance was excellent in both groups (mean gradient: Evolut PRO: 13.8±7.5 mm Hg; Evolut R: 14.5±8.1 mm Hg), while paravalvular regurgitation was significantly different between valve types (P=0.02). Clinical events were low at 30 days (Evolut PRO: for the all-cause mortality, 2.8%, any stroke was 1.8%, new pacemaker implantation, 3.0%: Evolut R:all-cause mortality, 2.5%, any stroke was 2.2%, new pacemaker implantation, 5.3%) and 1 year (Evolut PRO: all-cause mortality, 9.2%; any stroke, 3.1%; Evolut R: all-cause mortality, 9.8%; any stroke, 2.9%). Conclusions Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in degenerated surgical aortic valve with self-expandable supra-annular transcatheter heart valves is associated with excellent clinical outcomes and valve hemodynamics. Additional reductions in residual paravalvular regurgitation were obtained with the next generation Evolut PRO.

Project description:AIMS:Mitral annuloplasty using the Carillon Mitral Contour System (CMCS) reduces secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) and leads to reverse left ventricular remodelling. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the CMCS on the mitral valve annulus (MA) and left atrial volume (LAV). METHODS AND RESULTS:We retrospectively evaluated the data of all patients treated with the CMCS at our centre. Using transthoracic echocardiography, MA diameters were assessed by measuring the anterolateral to posteromedial extend (ALPM) and the anterior to posterior (AP) dimensions, respectively. Also, LAV and left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) were assessed. Patients were examined at three time points: baseline, at 20-60 days (30dFUP), and at 9-15 months (1yFUP), using paired analysis. From July 2014 until March 2019, 75 cases of severe SMR were treated using CMCS. Cases in which other devices were used in combination (COMBO therapy, n = 35) or in which the device could not be implanted (implant failure, n = 3) were excluded, leaving 37 patients in the present analysis. Analysis at 30dFUP showed a significant reduction of 16% in the mean ALPM diameter (7.27 ± 5.40 mm) and 15% in the AP diameter (6.57 ± 5.33 mm). Analysis of LAV also showed a significant reduction of 21% (36.61 ± 82.67 mL), with no significant change in LVEDV. At 1yFUP, the reduction of both the mean ALPM diameter of 14% (6.24 ± 5.70 mm) and the mean AP diameter of 12% (5.46 ± 4.99 mm) remained significant and stable. The reduction in LAV was also maintained at 23% (37.03 ± 56.91 mL). LAV index was significantly reduced by 17% at 30dFUP (15.44 ± 40.98 mL/m2 ) and by 13% at 1yFUP (11.56 ± 31.87 mL/m2 ), respectively. LVEDV index showed no significant change at 30dFUP and a non-significant 10% reduction at 1yFUP (17.75 ± 58.79 mL/m2 ). CONCLUSIONS:The CMCS successfully treats symptomatic SMR with a stable reduction of not only the AP diameter of the MA, but the current study also demonstrates an additional reduction of the ALPM dimension at both 30dFUP and 1yFUP. We have also shown for the first time that LAV and LAV index are significantly reduced at both 30dFUP and 1yFUP and a non-significant positive remodelling of the LVEDV. This positive left atrial remodelling has not been looked for and demonstrated in earlier randomized studies of CMCS.
