Brief summary

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of the Medtronic Intrepid™ Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement (TTVR) System in symptomatic patients with severe or greater tricuspid regurgitation.

Detailed description

Prospective, global, pre-market, interventional, multi-center, randomized controlled pivotal trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Medtronic Intrepid™ Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement (TTVR) System compared to Edwards EVOQUE TTVR System in symptomatic patients with severe or greater tricuspid regurgitation.

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Rate of Major Adverse Events (MAE)30-days post-procedure
Composite Endpoint: All-cause mortality, Heart failure hospitalization, and tricuspid valve reintervention1-year post-procedure

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
