Why the study?
Does percutaneous mitral annuloplasty reduce functional mitral regurgitation and improve clinical outcomes in heart failure patients?
Does percutaneous mitral annuloplasty reduce functional mitral regurgitation and improve clinical outcomes in heart failure patients?
Percutaneous mitral annuloplasty using a coronary sinus approach is associated with significant reductions in functional mitral regurgitation, reverse LV remodeling, and improved functional capacity up to 24 months.
