Summary

This trial is testing a new device to treat patients with a severe heart condition. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 21 with severe degenerative mitral regurgitation due to a specific issue in the heart's valve. Participants must be able to give consent, attend follow-ups, and not have conditions like functional mitral regurgitation, certain heart diseases, kidney issues stage 3b or worse, recent or planned major surgeries, life expectancy under a year, or any condition that affects study compliance.
What is being tested?
The HARPOON™ Beating Heart Mitral Valve Repair System is being tested for its safety and effectiveness in treating patients with severe degenerative mitral regurgitation. The system aims to repair the heart valve while it's still beating without needing traditional open-heart surgery.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not explicitly listed but may include complications related to heart procedures such as bleeding, infection risk at the incision site, reactions to anesthesia or materials used in the device itself.
