Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. Acute Primary Safety Endpoint: Freedom from death, stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), worsening mitral regurgitation, AV block, any malignant rhythm disturbance and cardiac tamponade/ pericardial effusion within 7 days post-procedure. 2. Acute Primary Performance Endpoint: Procedural success as defined by the ability to successfully deploy the PMVR catheter, treat the mitral annulus according to protocol, and demonstrate an acute reduction in mitral annular dimensions (TEE, optional MRI). 3. Acute Secondary Performance Endpoint Hemodynamic performance will be analyzed pre-procedurally and post-procedurally. Summary statistics will be provided for Mitral regurgitation Left ventricular ejection fraction Mitral valve annulus dimensions Left ventricular volume Effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA). Proximal Isovelocity Surface Area (PISA) All data will be captured on CRFs. In addition the patients needs to complete a questionaire of life and a walk test at baseline and at the 1, 3, 6 and 12 month follow-up intervalls
