Overview

TTVI may expand options for high-risk TR patients; leaves open questions on long-term outcomes and selection.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Patients with tricuspid regurgitation (TR), particularly elderly patients with multiple comorbidities who are at high risk for surgical morbidity and mortality.
I
Intervention
Transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI) strategies, including edge-to-edge repair, annular reduction, spacers, caval valve implantation, and transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement.

This review provides a comprehensive overview of the rapidly evolving field of transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions, highlighting the various device strategies and their early clinical promise for treating tricuspid regurgitation.
