Clip repair for leaky tricuspid valve
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a clip device to fix a leaky tricuspid valve without open-heart surgery. It may help people who have symptoms like breathlessness or swelling and are not good candidates for surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 60 years or older.
- You have a leaky tricuspid valve that is not caused by a problem with the valve itself.
- You have symptoms like chest tightness, shortness of breath, or swelling in your legs.
- Your heart's pumping ability is at least 40% (measured by an echo test).
- You have been on heart medications for at least 30 days and are stable.
- You are willing to sign a consent form and attend follow-up visits.

This trial tests a procedure that uses a small clip to fix a leaky tricuspid valve in the heart. The goal is to reduce symptoms like shortness of breath and fatigue, and help you feel better in your daily life.
This study tests a new catheter-based device to repair a leaky tricuspid heart valve (tricuspid regurgitation) in people who still have symptoms like shortness of breath or swelling despite taking heart medications. The goal is to see if the procedure is safe and can help reduce the leak.
This study follows adults with a severely leaky tricuspid heart valve who still have symptoms despite medication. It looks at outcomes after a procedure called TriClip, which helps reduce valve leakage.
This trial studies a catheter-based repair to help fix a leaky tricuspid valve (regurgitation), especially when you’re also having another heart surgery. It aims to improve valve function and symptoms while tracking safety and outcomes.
This study is testing whether the TriClip device helps people with severe tricuspid regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) feel better. It compares people who received the TriClip to those who didn't get the procedure.
This trial tests a catheter-based procedure (done through the blood vessels) to repair a severely leaky tricuspid valve. It may help people with symptoms or past hospitalizations from tricuspid valve leakage who are higher-risk for standard surgery.
