TEER Therapy Saves Iraqi Patient with 15% Heart Function, Multi-Organ Failure

• An Iraqi man with 15% heart function and multi-organ failure was successfully treated in India.
• Doctors at Paras Health used a complex double MitraClip (TEER) therapy to stabilize his failing heart.
• The patient, Hadi Mustafa Hamad, was in critical condition, experiencing shock and requiring CPR during the procedure.
• TEER (Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair) is a minimally invasive procedure for high-risk patients unsuitable for open-heart surgery or transplants.
• This case highlights TEER's potential to reshape treatment for critically ill patients with severe valve leakage and organ failure.

Why It Matters: TEER therapy provides a vital alternative for high-risk heart failure patients.
