Meril Launches MyClip: India's First TEER System for Mitral Regurgitation
Imagine your heart has a leaky door (mitral valve) letting blood flow the wrong way.
MyClip is a new tool like a tiny clip that fixes this door, stopping the leak.
Doctors can use this tool in a short procedure, and you can go home quickly.
Studies showed this type of fix works better than just taking medicine.
People who get the clip have fewer hospital visits and are less likely to have serious problems.
Meril launched MyClip, India's first TEER system for mitral regurgitation.
The MyClip system enables precise closure of mitral valve flaps, preventing blood backflow.
The minimally invasive procedure takes about an hour, with a 3-5 day hospital stay.
Device-based therapy showed better outcomes in the COAPT study, as published in NEJM.
Patients in the device group had lower heart failure hospitalization and mortality rates.
