Congratulations to Sharp Chula Vista on performing their first MitraClip™ and starting the program. Special thanks to Dr. Moussavian, Dr. Mumtaz, Dr. Gollapudi, and Dr. Cox for the help and support!
What is MitraClip™?
MitraClip™ is a simple procedure to fix your mitral valve.
During the procedure, doctors access the mitral valve with a thin tube (called a catheter) that is guided through a vein in your leg to reach your heart.
A small implanted clip is attached to your mitral valve to help it close more completely. This helps to restore normal blood flow through your heart.
