Percutaneous Repair of Moderate-to-Severe or Severe Functional Mitral Regurgitation in Symptomatic Heart Failure Patients: RESHAPE-HF2 Trial
Description
The RESHAPE-HF2 (Randomized Investigation of the MitraClip Device in Heart Failure [HF]: Second Trial in Patients With Clinically Significant Functional Mitral Regurgitation [MR]) trial assessed the safety and efficacy of mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) using MitraClip among symptomatic HF patients with secondary MR. The results of this trial indicate that M-TEER using the MitraClip on a background of maximally tolerated guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) was superior to GDMT alone in reducing HF hospitalization and mortality at 2 years in symptomatic HF patients with grade 3-4+ MR.
In this interview, Drs. Sidney Smith and Stefan Anker discuss the benefits of RESHAPE-HF2, including reduction in HF hospitalization (particularly among those with a history of HF hospitalization within the past year), significant quality-of-life improvements, and other patient-centered outcomes.
