Question

For people with mild or moderate tricuspid regurgitation, evidence on the safety and efficacy of transcatheter tricuspid valve leaflet repair is inadequate in quantity and quality. Therefore, for these people, this procedure should only be used in the context of research. Find out what only in research means on the NICE interventional procedures guidance page.

Any explanatory notes
(if applicable)

Further research should include details of patient selection, including the type and severity of tricuspid regurgitation.
