Aug 14, 2018 . The NeoChord device, in illustration, is inserted in the beating heart through a small incision, guided by echocardiography “While the heart is beating, you make a small incision under the patient’s left nipple, insert the device, and implant the artificial chords to the mitral valve,” says Dr. El-Eshmawi, the site Principal Investigator for the study.

The NeoChord repair procedure has been previously described in detail elsewhere [ 4, 10 ]. Briefly, access to the left heart was achieved through a left lateral minithoracotomy in the 5th intercostal space. Two purse-string sutures were placed 2–4 cm posterolateral from the apex of the left ventricle.

The first 50 patients of the TACT study are scheduled to undergo the NeoChord procedure during the first three months of this year. Dr. Giovanni Speziali, one of the proctors of the study from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, stated:
The NeoChord Artificial Chordae Delivery System is a beating heart procedure, echo-guided treatment option for patients with mitral valve regurgitation and is proven to resolve and restore normal mitral valve function. This opens in a new window.
“Receiving CE marking for the NeoChord device for implantation of artificial chordae tendinae via a transapical, off-pump procedure and beginning the TACT Registry are meaningful steps forward in the treatment of patients with severe mitral regurgitation.
A clinical study is ongoing within the United States to evaluate the use of the NeoChord DS1000. Mount Sinai Heart is leading a multicenter clinical trial of a minimally invasive mitral valve prolapse repair technology that has the potential to transform the standard of care for the disorder.
