Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Heart Team agrees that patient is deemed symptomatic despite medical therapy (including obligatory diuretic) and a candidate for bioprosthetic tricuspid valve replacement
  • Subject is at an intermediate or greater estimated risk of mortality with tricuspid valve surgery as determined by the local Heart Team
  • Subjects with severe symptomatic primary and / or secondary tricuspid regurgitation determined by the Echocardiography Core Lab assessment of a qualifying transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE)
  • New York Heart Association (NYHA) Function Class II or greater
  • Subject anatomically suitable for the Intrepid TTVR delivery system including transfemoral access
  • Subject and the treating physician agree that the subject will return for all required post-procedure follow-up visits
  • Subject meets the legal minimum age to provide informed consent based on local regulatory requirements

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Estimated life expectancy of less than 24 months due to associated non-cardiac co-morbid conditions
  • Anatomic contraindications for Intrepid™ TTVR (e.g., annular dimensions)
  • Evidence of intracardiac mass, inferior vena cava, or femoral venous mass or thrombus
  • Implanted with venous stents (iliac and/or femoral) or inferior vena cava (IVC) filter or congenital abnormalities of the IVC that would preclude ability for transfemoral access of delivery system
  • Echocardiographic evidence of severe right ventricular dysfunction
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <30 as measured by resting echocardiogram within 30 days of the Index Procedure
  • Need for emergent or urgent surgery
  • Untreated clinically significant coronary artery disease requiring revascularization
  • Carcinoid tricuspid regurgitation
