Mitral Valve Disease
Mitral Regurgitation (MR)
MR occurs when the mitral valve fails to close completely causing blood flow to flow backward
Mayo Clinic (www.mayoclinic.com)
Symptoms may include: • Shortness of breath • Heart palpitations • Fatigue • Lightheadedness • Cough • Swollen feet or ankles • Excessive urination
Mitral Regurgitation Etiologies Degenerative MR
– Also known as primary or organic MR – Usually caused by an anatomic
defect of one or more structures comprising the mitral valve apparatus—the annulus, the leaflets, the chordae tendineae, and the papillary muscles
Normal Mitral Valve
Degenerative MR: Prolapse
Degenerative MR: Flail
Functional MR
See Important Safety information Referenced Within
Functional MR – Also known as secondary MR – Results from left ventricular (LV)
dysfunction and dilation, which causes otherwise normal valve components to fail and results in MR
Mitral Valve Disease is Commonand Increases with Age
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common type of heart valve insufficiency in the US1,2

Heart Failure and MR are an Economic Burden
• Estimated annual cost of heart failure is $39.2 billion1
• Majority of treatment costs are due to hospital care1
• Hospitalization following discharge from heart failure admission is high (25% -50% at 30 days)2
Distribution of costs for heart failure treatment in the USA1
Physician, 7%
Home Health Care, 9%Medication, 9%
Nursing Home 13%Hospital Care, 60%
Annual cost of heart failure places a large burden on health care budgets in U.S.
Moderate or greater MR is estimated to occur in 59% patients with heart failure, with the number increasing to 74% in heart failure patients3

MitraClip® Therapy Filling a Treatment Gap
• Medical therapy is limited to symptom management!
• MV surgery has been the only option that reliably reduces MR!
• A significant gap exists between medical and surgical options!
• MitraClip® therapy is a first-in-class, percutaneous option to reduce MR*

INDICATION FOR USE: Prohibitive Risk Primary MR (DMR)
The MitraClip® Clip Delivery System is indicated for the percutaneous reduction of significant symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR ≥ 3+) due to primary abnormality of the mitral apparatus [degenerative MR] in patients who have been determined to be at prohibitive risk for mitral valve surgery by a heart team, which includes a cardiac surgeon experienced in mitral valve surgery and a cardiologist experienced in mitral valve disease, and in whom existing comorbidities would not preclude the expected benefit from reduction of the mitral regurgitation.

DMR - Flail
DMR - Prolapse
2014 AHA/ACC Guidelines for the Management of Patients with Valvular Heart Disease
See important safety information referenced within
“Class IIb 3. Transcatheter mitral valve repair may be considered for severely symptomatic patients (NYHA class III to IV) with chronic severe primary MR (stage D) who have favorable anatomy for the repair procedure and a reasonable life expectancy but who have a prohibitive surgical risk because of severe comorbidities and remain severely symptomatic despite optimal GDMT for HF (426). (Level of Evidence: B) !An RCT of percutaneous mitral valve repair using the MitraClip device versus surgical mitral repair was conducted in the United States. The clip was found to be safe but less effective than surgical repair because residual MR was more prevalent in the percutaneous group. However, the clip did reduce severity of MR, improved symptoms, and led to reverse LV remodeling. Percutaneous mitral valve repair should only be considered for patients with chronic primary MR who remain severely symptomatic with NYHA class III to IV HF symptoms despite optimal GDMT for HF and who are considered inoperable.”¹

Symptoms of Aortic Stenosis4
The symptoms of aortic disease are commonly misunderstood by patients as ‘normal’ signs of aging.5 Many patients initially appear asymptomatic, but on closer examination up to 37% exhibit symptoms.6
Sandy Actual TAVR Patient
Pre-Procedure Inoperable
• After the onset of symptoms, patients with severe aortic stenosis have a survival rate as low as 50% at 2 years and 20% at 5 years without aortic valve replacement2
• The PARTNER Trial demonstrated that 50% of inoperable patients died within 1 year without a valve replacement
