Etiologies and Impact of Exclusion Rates for Transcatheter Mitral and Tricuspid Valve Structural Heart Clinical Trials at a High Volume Quaternary Care Hospital

There are various devices under clinical investigation for transcatheter mitral valve intervention (TMVI) and tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI), but exclusion rates remain high. We aim to investigate exclusion rates for transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr), transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR), transcatheter tricuspid valve repair (TTVr) and transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR). There were a total of 129 patients who were referred to St. Francis Hospital& Heart Center valve clinic and completed screening between January 2021 and July 2022.
