Structural Heart Interventions: TEER Guidance

Training Overview

Structural Heart Interventions: TEER Guidance is a comprehensive and simulation-based educational program focused on mastering transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) procedures for mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation. This two-day training provides participants with an in-depth understanding of imaging-guided procedural planning, device selection, and hands-on simulation for precise procedural execution.

The program begins with detailed sessions on valvular anatomy, pathophysiology, and lesion assessment through advanced multimodality imaging, including 3D TEE, CT, and fusion imaging. Participants learn step-by-step procedural workflows for TEER, emphasizing patient selection, clip positioning, leaflet grasping, and deployment optimization.

Hands-on simulation modules replicate real cath lab scenarios using advanced synthetic valve models and digital guidance systems. Participants practice procedural steps such as device steering, imaging alignment, and leaflet capture under expert supervision .Real or recorded case analyses demonstrate complex anatomies, troubleshooting techniques, and post-implant evaluation strategies.

Advanced discussions explore new-generation TEER systems, transcatheter tricuspid repair, and integration of imaging with hemodynamic assessment to guide intra-procedural decision-making.Throughout the program, participants engage in interactive sessions with international structural heart experts, encouraging knowledge exchange, case-based reasoning, and best-practice sharing.

By the end of this training, participants will have achieved a high level of procedural insight and technical competency in imaging-guided transcatheter edge-to-edge repair for both mitral and tricuspid valve interventions.
