This is filed for mitral stenosis and atrial septal defect (asd).It was reported that this was a mitraclip procedure to treat degenerative mitral regurgitation (mr) with a grade of 4+.One clip was implanted without issue.A second clip was implanted without issue; however, it was noted that the mean pressure gradient (mpg) increased from 2 mmhg to 6 mmhg.Mr was reduced to grade 1+.The patient was in stable condition, with no adverse patient sequela.No additional intervention was performed to treat the increased mpg.The physician chose to place an atrial septal defect (asd) closure device at the end of the procedure, closing the asd puncture site.It was noted that the asd was not larger than expected and was not causing an adverse patient effect.Post procedure, the patient was in stable condition.No additional information was provided.
