  • echocardiographic core laboratory

Authors' conclusion

In the EXPANDed studies, non-COAPT-like patients experienced significant improvements in MR, HFH, and quality-of-life at 1 year, comparable with those observed in COAPT-like patients.

Study context

Population
Patients with secondary mitral regurgitation treated with 3rd/4th-generation MitraClip mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (MTEER)Secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) patients of 2,205 in EXPANDed
Participants
967 patients
Comparison
MTEER in non-COAPT-like vs COAPT-like SMR patients
  • COAPT-liken = 197reference
  • Non-COAPT-liken = 81

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

One-year mortality and HFH · 1 year
  • One-year mortality and heart failure hospitalizations (HFH) rates similar between groups

Further findings
