About the Carillon Mitral Contour System
The Carillon System offers a simple right heart approach to transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) designed to reshape the anatomy and function of the mitral apparatus from the coronary sinus. Distal and proximal anchors, connected by a shaping ribbon, utilize the heart's venous anatomy to cinch the mitral apparatus without compromising the valve or future treatment options.2,3 The Carillon System is designed to treat the primary cause of functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) in patients with MR grades 2+, 3+ and 4+ and is the first and only device to demonstrate a reduction in regurgitant volume and favorable left ventricular remodeling in a blinded, randomized, sham-controlled clinical trial of percutaneous valve therapy.1
The Carillon System is CE-marked (0344) and has been implanted in 1000 patients in Europe, Australia, Turkey and the Middle East. The Carillon System is approved for investigational use in the United States.
