TRICLIP™ TRANSCATHETER TRICUSPID VALVE REPAIR SYSTEM

TriClip™ Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (TEER) offers a minimally invasive treatment option to improve quality of life (QoL) and functional status in patients with symptomatic severe tricuspid regurgitation, despite optimal medical therapy, who are at intermediate or greater risk for surgery.1

INSPIRED BY PATIENTS.
MADE POSSIBLE BY YOU.

Choose Safety. Choose Repair.

TriClip Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge device is the only TEER device intentionally designed for the tricuspid valve, with stable navigation and precise delivery2,14 to safely maximize tricuspid regurgitation (TR) reduction and achieve sustained clinically significant improvement in the quality of life of patients with TR.3,4

  • Significant TR reduction3,4
  • Exceptional safety profile4,5
  • Life-changing improvements in health related quality of life3-5
  • Proven in randomized and real-world studies.3,4

A state-of-the-art treatment option for patients at intermediate
or greater risk for surgery

TriClip TEER is a low-risk,5 non-surgical treatment option for improving quality of life and functional status in patients with symptomatic severe tricuspid regurgitation, despite optimal medical therapy, who are at intermediate or greater risk for surgery and in whom transcatheter edge-to-edge valve repair is clinically appropriate and is expected to reduce tricuspid regurgitation severity to moderate or less, as determined by a multidisciplinary heart team.1

  • Transcatheter beating heart procedure
    - no cardiopulmonary bypass
  • Allows for real-time positioning and
    repositioning to optimize TR reduction
  • Femoral venous access
  • Can be used in a standard cath lab or hybrid room
  • No pre-procedural CT required
  • Fast recovery times; many patients go home
    the next day4
  • Patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation have significantly impaired quality of life12
    • Shortness of breath
    • Peripheral edema
    • Ascites
    • Fatigue
    • Declining exercise capacity
  • Current treatment options have limitations

    Medical therapy for TR has little impact on TR reduction5

     
    66%
    of patients with severe FTR die within 5 years of medical management6
     



    Most patients receive medical management until right heart failure or end-organ dysfunction appears.7

  • Surgery is high risk and often denied8,9

    Surgery for TR is seldom performed. Factors prohibiting surgery include:

    • High operative risk (6-16% in-hospital mortality)
    • Multiple comorbidities
    • Advanced age
    • Lack of effectiveness


    Long-term survival estimates for all patients undergoing
    surgical tricuspid valve replacement or repair10

  • Building on a legacy of unmatched TEER expertise13

    TriClip™ implants use the same proven leaflet repair technology as our MitraClip™ Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair (TEER) implants. TriClip TEER is the clip-based technology physicians know and trust, with a delivery system uniquely designed for the tricuspid valve.

    TriClip implant features1:

    • Elgiloy® implants with nitinol grippers
    • Polyester cover designed to promote tissue growth
    • Magnetic resonance conditional to 3 Tesla†

    †Static magnetic field of 1.5 T or 3 T; maximum spatial gradient in static field of 4000 gauss/cm or less; maximum whole-body averaged specific absorption rate (SAR) of 2 W/kg for 15 minutes of scanning.
     

  • Optimized leaflet capture

    Optimized leaflet capture for consistent TR reduction with the TriClip G4 TEER System

    • Wide grasp opening allows full leaflet insertion1
    • Designed to distribute retention forces along the entire inserted leaflet length11
    • Four or six rows of short frictional elements designed to provide atraumatic leaflet engagement11
  • Broad range of sizes for tailored treatment

    Four implant sizes are available for patient-specific therapy with the TriClip G4 TEER System.1
