Incidence, Predictors and Outcomes of Bleeding Following Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Repair: The TriValve Registry

JACC Cardiovasc IntervPublished Retrospective analysis of an international multicentre registry

Authors' conclusion

BARC major bleeding occurs in about 11% of patients following transcatheter tricuspid valve repair and is a major determinant of in-hospital and 1-year death.
