Minimally invasive procedure for leaky heart valves (MitraClip)

This video talks about MitraClip, a minimally invasive procedure to treat leaky heart valves. The MitraClip, as the name implies, is used to clip together the faulty heart valves, to stop blood that is pumped out to flow back into the heart chambers.

Is this approach can also be applied in infants?

I don't recommend using this procedure in infants, unless they are more than 6 years old and the risk assesment is particularly high for a conventional surgical procedure.
