Transapical off-pump mitral valve intervention with neochordae implantation is a novel, minimally invasive procedure for treatment of degenerative mitral valve regurgitation. The aim of this study was to apply control charts (CUSUM curves) to monitor the performance of NeoChord repair during the initial phase of its adoption.
