Summary

This trial is testing a wireless sensor inserted through a vein in the groin to monitor pressure in the pulmonary artery. The goal is to see if the sensor can provide real-time information about heart function to help

Who is the study for?
The CardioClip study is for individuals with heart failure and mitral valve regurgitation. Participants should be suitable for the non-surgical insertion of a wireless sensor through a vein in the groin, similar to mTEER procedure.
What is being tested?
This trial tests a wireless sensor called CardioMEMS that monitors pulmonary artery pressure. It's inserted via the groin and sends heart function data so doctors can adjust treatments promptly based on real-time information.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort or bruising at the insertion site, risk of infection, possible allergic reaction to materials in the device, and rare complications related to catheter use.
