PREMISE is a retrospective, observational study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the MitraClip in real world Canadian practice. It will include all patients who have undergone MitraClip implantation in Canada to date.
PREMISE will provide valuable data to describe patient demographics, etiology of mitral regurgitation, co-morbidities, medication use and functional class.

Shamir Mehta is a Senior Scientist with the Acute Coronary Syndrome and Interventional Cardiology research program at PHRI. He holds the Douglas A. Holder Endowed Chair and is a Professor of Medicine at McMaster University. Mehta directs the Royal College fellowship in interventional cardiology and leads the mitral and tricuspid valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair programs at Hamilton Health Sciences and McMaster University. He completed his medical education and postgraduate training at the University of Toronto, followed by a research fellowship at McMaster University, supported by a Canadian Institutes of Health Research New Investigator Award.
At PHRI, he leads landmark clinical trials that evaluate revascularization strategies and new pharmacologic interventions for patients with acute coronary syndromes. Mehta is the Principal Investigator of the COMPLETE-2 trial, a 5,100-patient multinational study comparing physiology-guided and angiography-guided PCI strategies for treating non-culprit lesions in patients with acute coronary syndrome and multivessel coronary artery disease. This trial includes a large-scale intracoronary imaging study using optical coherence tomography to predict cardiovascular events. He also serves on the executive committee of the Librexia ACS trial, which is testing a novel Factor XIa inhibitor in acute coronary syndromes, and he is a steering committee member of OCEAN(a), focusing on targeted lowering of lipoprotein(a) with a novel small interfering RNA after acute coronary syndrome or PCI.
Dr. Mehta has published hundreds of research articles and has secured millions of dollars in peer-reviewed research grants from CIHR and industry. In 2022, he received the Canadian Cardiovascular Society’s Research Achievement Award. In 2024, he received the Canadian Association of Interventional Cardiology Outstanding Achievement Award.
