Project description
A minimally invasive valve replacement procedure
Tricuspid valve regurgitation is a condition in which the valve between the two right heart chambers fails to close properly. This problem causes blood to flow backwards into the right upper chamber and is associated with reduced heart output. The scope of the EIC-funded Trillium project is to develop an alternative to open heart surgery to replace the defective valve. The project proposes an easy-to-deploy valve replacement through a minimally invasive procedure using a transcatheter. The suggested procedure can be completed within half an hour without the associated risks of open-heart surgery, offering a safe and cost-effective solution for patients with tricuspid valve regurgitation
Objective
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a cardiac disorder in which the tricuspid valve leaks during systole causing blood backflow, resulting in decreased cardiac output. TR is the most common valvular heart disease affecting 65%-85% of the global population in its mild form. However, mild TR can progress to severe TR, leading to heart failure or death if left untreated. Today, the only option for treatment is valve repair or replacement through open-heart surgery, which is associated with high mortality rates, risks, and costs. Over 3M patients suffer from TR in Europe, and for the majority, their condition is too severe for surgery; therefore, there is no effective treatment. Innoventric has developed the Trillium - a transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement solution: the whole procedure is minimally invasive and can be completed in 30mins. Within the EIC project, Innoventric will finalize the clinical validation of its device, ensuring safe and timely intervention for TR patients.
