The objective of this study is to demonstrate safety and efficacy of the EmStop Embolic Protection System when used as indicated to capture and remove thrombus/debris during self-expanding transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedures.
NCT06168370
The POPular ATLANTIS trial aims to investigate CT-guided antithrombotic therapy compared to lifelong single antiplatelet therapy after a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedure. Only patients without an indication for anticoagulants will be included in this trial. Currently, lifelong single antiplatelet therapy (mostly aspirin) is considered the standard of care for these patients. However, this approach poses a bleeding risk with only a minimal reduction in thromboembolic events. After 3 months, a CT scan will be conducted to assess the presence of thrombosis on the newly implanted TAVI valve. Based on the results of a 4D CT scan, the decision will be made whether the patient should receive no anticoagulant or antithrombotic therapy with apixaban. CT-guided antithrombotic therapy holds the potential for a greater reduction in thromboembolic events without increasing the bleeding risk.
NCT06762288
Hemodynamic stability is the main goal of the anesthetic method during Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI). Pain during the procedure may cause patients to move therefore hemodynamic instability. This may lead to undesirable complications for the patient and the physician. At the same time, it may affect the process quality and cause the processing time to be extended. In this prospective-randomised clinical trial, ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plan block will be performed to reduce pain. We aimed to contribute to the reduction of undesirable outcomes for the patient and physician by providing adequate anesthesia with Transversus Abdominis Plan (TAP) block accompanied by sedation, and to present its impact on the quality of the healthcare service provided by evaluating patient and physician satisfaction.
NCT02701283
The study objective is to demonstrate that the safety and effectiveness of the Medtronic TAVR system as measured by rates of all-cause mortality or disabling stroke at two years is noninferior to SAVR in the treatment of severe aortic stenosis in subjects who have a low predicted risk of operative mortality for SAVR. The purpose of the expanded use addendum to the Medtronic TAVR in Low Risk Patients Trial protocol is to conclude the randomized phase of the trial and initiate the single-arm, non-randomized, continued access phase of the trial.

Hydra-IT is a multicenter observational study aim to collect clinical, procedural and follow-up data and evaluate the short, medium and long term results of Hydra TAVI System in patient with severe aortic stenosis.
NCT04555967
A post-market study of the Edwards SAPIEN 3 Ultra System in subjects with symptomatic, severe, calcific aortic stenosis.
NCT07001800
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if ataciguat slows the progression of moderate calcific aortic valve stenosis in adults.
NCT07520656
This prospective observational study aims to investigate the impact of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) on sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in patients with significant valvular heart disease. Patients undergoing TAVI or M-TEER will be evaluated with full polysomnography prior to the intervention and at 6 months follow-up. Changes in sleep parameters, including apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), central and obstructive apnea indices, oxygen desaturation, and sleep architecture, will be assessed. In addition, the study will explore the association between changes in SDB and echocardiographic as well as arrhythmic parameters. The findings are expected to improve the understanding of the interaction between valvular heart disease and SDB and to identify potential benefits of transcatheter interventions on sleep-related outcomes.
NCT05479188
The aim of the proposed study is to evaluate microcirculatory alterations in patients undergoing open heart surgery with minimal invasive versus conventional extracorporeal circulation.
NCT06557798
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a key-hole technique to replace an aortic heart valve that is narrowed and/or leaking. Although TAVI is a safe and effective treatment for a faulty aortic heart valve, the new TAVI valve will not last forever. Because it is a 'tissue' valve (made from the lining of a cow or pig heart), the valve will fail after a period of time as the tissue degenerates. When the TAVI valve fails, a viable treatment option is to perform a 'Redo TAVI' procedure, implanting a second TAVI valve inside the first failing valve. The main purpose of this study is to carefully evaluate patients being treated by Redo TAVI in order to document the short-term and long-term outcomes of the procedure. The study will also obtain information about which factors predict those outcomes. The study will also assess outcomes in patients who present with TAVI valve failure but are not suitable for Redo TAVI, and instead are treated either by open-heart surgery and surgical aortic valve replacement, or by medical therapy (medication). The study will provide doctors the information they need to understand the best way to treat patients who present with TAVI valve failure, and in particular how to perform Redo TAVI procedures with the best possible outcomes for patients.
NCT07477002
Asymmetrical and inadequate expansion of trans-catheter heart valves (THVs) have been described as a key predictor of impaired valve hemodynamic performance predisposing patients for bio-prosthetic valve dysfunction (BVD) and death. Post-dilatation using the original delivery system balloon at the identical filling volume after deployment of balloon-expandable THVs represents an invasive strategy to potentially optimize expansion and reduce asymmetry of balloon-expandable THVs. Currently, the efficacy and safety of routine post-dilatation has never been assessed in a randomized controlled fashion. The present randomized controlled DUO-TAP trial aims to assess efficacy and safety of routine post-dilatation on THV expansion, asymmetry, hemodynamic, durability, and associated clinical outcomes in patients with severe aortic stenosis.
NCT05149755
Obtain safety and effectiveness data to support indication expansion for the Medtronic TAVR System to include patients with moderate, AS.
NCT06099665
This multi-center, prospective, cluster-randomized controlled trial will evaluate Tempus Next automated notifications as an intervention to support identification and evaluation of patients possibly indicated for Valve Intervention (VI). This study will evaluate the impact of Tempus Next's automated notifications on: (1) Transcatheter or surgical procedure for AS or MR; and (2) Clinic visit with at least one member of the Multidisciplinary Heart Team (including time to evaluation) for patients with definitive or possible severe AS or MR on echocardiogram. These endpoints will also be examined within and between assigned groups according to race, ethnicity, sex, and geography. The primary question that will be answered: Do automated alerts sent to clinical providers decrease under-treatment of severe aortic stenosis and severe mitral regurgitation? The study will compare the rate of clinical follow-up and aortic valve surgery in a control group (no alerts sent) to a treatment group (alerts sent to an appropriate care provider).
NCT07456280
Study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a non-invasive electrocardiographic monitoring strategy associated with early discharge in patients with conduction disorder after transfemoral TAVI implantation, and its potential benefits compared to standard care.
NCT07442357
The study is a prospective, crossover, cluster randomized trial in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The study tests whether cephalosporin plus beta-lactam antibiotic with spectrum for Enterococcus faecalis as per procedural prophylaxis is superior to cephalosporin alone in reducing the composite outcome of bacteremia or death at 6 months post-TAVI.
NCT05237804
Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most frequent valvulopathy in Western countries. The prevalence of AS is constantly increasing due to the aging of the population. Although significant progress has been made in understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the onset and progression of AS, there is no medical treatment to slow or prevent its progression. The only treatment available is Aortic Valve Replacement (AVR) performed by surgery or by catheterization (TAVI). Once a diagnosis has been made and the decision to treat these patients has been taken, the procedure (AVR or TAVI) must be performed rapidly given the poor prognosis of the disease without treatment. Studies have shown that on the waiting list, the probability of death and hospitalisation for heart failure increases with time. This delay could also reduce the effectiveness of TAVI, thus affecting the performance of the healthcare system. In this study, an intervention combining an e-health component (tool intended for patients, families and health professionals in contact with patients), and an organisational component (for TAVI implanting centres) has been designed. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of this intervention.
NCT05036018
Open-label, 2 x 2 factorial, prospective, randomized, national, multicenter study to compare latest-generation self-expanding valves and a minimalist approach versus standard of care in transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
NCT07331116
Patients with aortic stenosis waiting for aortic valve repair were investigated with echocardiography preoperatively, and a myocardial biospy was taken during the operation. We aim to perform a retrospective analysis of these data, to look for correlations between biopsy-verified myocardial fibrosis and echocardiography parameters. The patients also had cardiac magnetic resonance imaging performed, for a non-invasive quantification of myocardial fibrosis.
