Study summary

The objective of the study is to generate safety and performance data for the 4Tech TriCinch Coil System in symptomatic patients suffering from significant functional tricuspid regurgitation with annular dilatation.

The TriCinch Coil System is a percutaneous catheter-based medical device for tricuspid valve repair.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Tricinch Coil System treatment

    Device: TriCinch Coil System implantation

Interventions

  • DeviceTriCinch Coil System implantation

    Patients enrolled in this study with all eligibility criteria confirmed will be implanted with the TriCinch Coil System. This device offers a percutaneous treatment (access through the vein at the groin) to treat the leaking tricuspid valve, without the need for surgical intervention.
