Learning how a new heart valve works in real patients

This is a registry study that tracks patients who have received the Tendyne Mitral Valve System, a new artificial valve designed to treat severe leaking of the mitral valve in the heart. Researchers want to learn how well this treatment works in everyday patients and whether it is safe by collecting information from hospitals across Europe over several years.

Many older patients or those with serious health conditions cannot have traditional open-heart surgery to fix or replace a leaking mitral valve. This study exists to understand how well this newer, less invasive valve option performs in real patients so doctors can make better treatment decisions.
