Product information
Edwards Cardioband tricuspid valve reconstruction system

Valve Reconstruction
Restores valve to a more functional state - facilitating leaflet coaptation1

Annular Reduction
Enables annular reduction based on each patient’s anatomy

Real-time Adjustment
Allows real-time adjustment and confirmation of procedural results
- Nickenig, G. TRI-REPAIR: 30-Day Outcomes of Transcatheter TV Repair in Patients with Severe Secondary Tricuspid Regurgitation. Presented at TCT 2017.
Outcomes
Single arm, multicentre, prospective study to evaluate the performance and safety of the Cardioband tricuspid system for reconstruction of pathological tricuspid valves

Study Conclusions 1,2
Patients with functional tricuspid regurgitation have a large unmet need with limited treatment options
In early experience, the Cardioband tricuspid system provides
- Significant reduction in TR severity through annular reduction, sustained at 2 years
- Survival rate of 73% at 2 years
- Improvements in functional status, quality of life and exercise capacity through 2 years
