A Prospective, Multicentric Clinical Trial Protocol to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the HighLife Trans-Septal Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement System for the Treatment of Moderate-severe or Severe Mitral Regurgitation With Single-arm Objective Performance Criteria
To observe and evaluate the safety and efficacy of the HighLife Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement System in patients with moderate-severe or severe mitral valve regurgitation through a prospective, multicenter clinical trial using objective performance criteria.
• Patients who voluntarily participate and sign the informed consent form and can cooperate with the completion of the entire trial process;
• Age ≥ 18 years old;
• Moderate-severe or severe mitral regurgitation (≥3+); Note 1: Patients with ischemic or non-ischemic heart disease induced symptomatic secondary mitral regurgitation as the primary cause must be treated for at least 1 month after optimal guideline medical therapy (GDMT). Echocardiography should be performed 3 months after cardiac resynchronization therapy and 1 month after coronary revascularization to assess the degree of regurgitation.
• Note 2: For patients with primary mitral regurgitation, the multidisciplinary cardiac team of the research center needs to use a standard scoring system, considering multiple factors such as complications, frailty, and disability, ensuring the enrolled with a high risk of surgery.
• Patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional ratings are Class II, III, or ambulatory Class IV;
• Anatomically appropriate for treatment with the HighLife Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement System.
