Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is common, and its prevalence increases with age. It was previously estimated that there are 1.6 million patients in the United States with moderate or worse TR, and more contemporary data suggest the age-adjusted prevalence of TR is 0.55%. Increasing TR severity is associated with an adverse prognosis independent of the pulmonary artery pressure and the degree of right heart failure. In heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, survival is significantly worsened when moderate or severe TR is present. The mainstay of therapy has traditionally been surgery, but outcomes are poor. There has been increasing attention on the potential role of transcatheter interventions for TR. Numerous platforms are in developmental evolution, which broadly fall into 3 categories: valve replacement, valve repair (subdivided into annular, leaflet, and chordal platforms), and caval valve implantation. In this review, we examine all these strategies and devices, including guidance on how to appropriately select patients who can benefit from intervention.
