Chris Jackson is a breast cancer survivor. After several rounds of chemo and open-heart surgery, she was left with tricuspid regurgitation. Dr. Paul Sorajja at the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation introduced Chris to the Triluminate trial, which is a tricuspid valve clip and a less-invasive option to fix her leaky valve.
The Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation® (MHIF) strives to create a world without heart and vascular disease. To achieve this bold vision, we are dedicated to improving the cardiovascular health of individuals and communities through innovative research and education.
Thanks to the generosity of donors like you, we can continue this life-saving work. Please make a gift to support the area of greatest need.
We are honored to celebrate the culmination of years of research that has resulted in new technologies for patients! In the few last weeks, we announced a similar research milestone with the FDA approval of the TriClip system for tricuspid regurgitation. We celebrated this important milestone with local media KSTP-TV, who spotlighted the importance of this new technology. We were proud to be a leading clinical site led by Global PI Dr. Paul Sorajja and the MHIF research team who contributed significant data to the pivotal trial.
