Risk and outcomes of complications during and after MitraClip implantation: Experience in 828 patients from the German TRAnscatheter mitral valve interventions (TRAMI) registry

Abstract

MitraClip implantation appears to be a safe treatment option with low rates of MACCE and clip-specific complications. Nevertheless, MitraClip therapy is not without complications. Careful patient selection and improvements in preventing peri-procedural bleeding have the potential of reducing post-procedural complications and improving outcomes.
