meeting.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

    Agenda: The meeting presentations will be heard, viewed, captioned, 
and recorded through an online teleconferencing platform. On February 
13, 2024, the committee will discuss, make recommendations, and vote on 
information regarding the premarket approval application (PMA) for the 
TriClip G4 System by Abbott Medical. The proposed Indication for Use 
statement is as follows: The TriClip G4 System is indicated for the 
improvement of health status in patients with symptomatic severe 
tricuspid regurgitation despite being treated optimally with medical 
therapy, who are at intermediate or greater risk for surgery and in 
whom tricuspid valve edge-to-edge repair is appropriate as determined 
by a heart team.
    FDA intends to make background material available to the public no 
later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post 
the background material on its website prior to the meeting, the 
background material will be made publicly available on FDA's website at 
the time of the advisory committee meeting, and the background material 
will be posted on FDA's website after the meeting. Background material 
and the link to the online teleconference meeting room will be 
available at https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/default.htm. Scroll down and select the appropriate advisory committee 
meeting link. The meeting will include slide presentations with audio 
components to allow the presentation of materials in a manner that most 
closely resembles an in-person advisory committee meeting.

views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee. 
Written submissions may be made to the contact person on or before 
February 2, 2024. Oral presentations from the public will be scheduled
