Detailed Description

This is a retrospective, non-randomized cohort study measuring 2-year effectiveness of the EVOQUE Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement (TTVR) system in the real-world.

This study will retrospectively evaluate EVOQUE treated patients in the STS/ACC TVT Registry who have at least severe Tricuspid Regurgitation and can be deterministically linked with Medicare data.

This group will be compared to Medicare eligible and EVOQUE eligible patients evaluated in a standard of care setting from a commercial claims database linked with electronic health records.

We will evaluate the primary outcome measure in various subgroups.

There will be continued access enrollment after the primary completion date.
