Abstract
Introduction: Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) by approximating the leaflet edges with the MitraClip system ( Fig. A ) is rapidly gaining momentum as the primary therapy for repair of functional mitral regurgitation. Though effective acutely, the unphysiological mechanics that TEER imposes on the valve can be substantial and effect durability of the repair. In this study, we used stereo digital image correlation (sDIC) to quantify the...
