Descripción
Sumario:MIRTH (Myocardial Intramural Remodeling by Transvenous Tether) is a transcatheter ventricular remodeling procedure. A transvenous tension element is placed within the walls of the beating left ventricle and shortened to narrow chamber dimensions. MIRTH uses 2 new techniques: controlled intramyocardial guidewire navigation and EDEN (Electrocardiographic Radial Depth Navigation). MIRTH caused a sustained reduction in chamber dimensions in healthy swine. Midventricular implants approximated papillary muscles. MIRTH shortening improved myocardial contractility in cardiomyopathy in a dose-dependent manner up to a threshold beyond which additional shortening reduced performance. MIRTH may help treat dilated cardiomyopathy. Clinical investigation is warranted.
