Mitral regurgitation Atrial fibrilation Periprocedural anticoagulation strategy in patients treated with MitraClip implantation or Left Atrial Appendage Closure. The patients scheduled for MitraClip or LAAC procedure will be randomized to initiation of the unfractionated heparin either 15 minutes before or immediately after transseptal puncture.

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The aim of the study is to compare efficacy and safety of two strategies of initiation of anticoagulation with unfractionated heparin (UFH) in patients undergoing structural heart interventions requiring transseptal puncture (MitraClip implantation or Left Atrial Appendage Closure). Patients will be randomized to: Early UFH administration. The iv. bolus of UFH (100Units/kg) will be given after obtained femoral vein access and at least 15 minutes prior to the start of the transseptal puncture. or Late UFH administration. The iv. bolus of UFH (100Units/kg) will be given immediately after transseptal puncture, defined as the introduction of the transseptal sheath into the left atrium. ;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): Primary composite study endpoint 1. MACCE (death, stroke, TIA, myocardial infaction or peripheral embolization) within 30 days after procedure 2. Intraprocedural fresh thrombus formation in the right or left atrium as assessed with peroprocedural transsesophageal echocardiography 3.Occurence of new ischemic lesions with diameter =4 mm in brain MR performed 2-5 days after procedure The compontents of primary study endpoint will be assessed hierarchically as follow 1. MACCE, 2. intraprocedural thrombus formation 3. new ischemic lesions with diameter =4 mm in brain MR ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: MACCE component of primary study endpoint will be assessed within 30 days post index procedure. Intraprocedural fresh thrombus formation in the right or left atrium as assessed with peroprocedural transsesophageal echocardiography will be assess during MitraClip or LAAC procedures. Occurence of new ischemic lesions with diameter =4 mm in brain MR performed 2-5 days after procedure will be assessed within 2-5 days post procedure. | — |

Intraprocedural fresh thrombus formation in the right or left atrium as assessed with peroprocedural transsesophageal echocardiography 2. Occurence of new ischemic brain lesion in the MR examination performed within 2-5 days post index procedure. 3. Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (death, stroke, TIA, peripheral embolization, myocardial infarction) within 30 days from the index procedure. Exploratory study endpoints 1. Number of new ischemic brain lesions in MR examination performed within 2-5 days post index procedure 2. Number of new ischemic brain lesions in MR examination performed within 30-35 days post index procedure 3. Total volume of new ischemic brain lesions in the MR examination performed within 2-5 days post index procedure. 4.
