Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare del Nido and Bretschneider-HTK (HTK) cardioplegia solutions in patients undergoing elective aortic valve replacement. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does the del Nido cardioplegia provide better cardioprotection and clinical outcomes than HTK cardioplegia? Participants will receive one of the investigated cardioplegia solutions according to the randomization. Researchers will compare both groups in terms of cardioprotection (described as levels of CK-MB and hsTnI), in-hospital clinical outcomes, biochemical changes in coronary sinus blood and one-year follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a clinical investigation of the Foldax Tria Aortic Valve to collect evidence on the device's safety and performance.
The Ozaki aortic valve reconstruction procedure uses autologous or bovine pericardium as an aortic cusp replacement without the use of struts and with use of the patient's own native aortic root. In this technique one can replace individual aortic cusps, 1, 2, or all 3 cusps. Ideally the patient's autologous pericardium will be harvested and fixed in gluteraldehyde at the time and prepared for the patient's specific annular dimensions with the neoaortic root sizers. Based on the measured size, one then uses a leaflet template to independently replace the cusps resulting in more effective preservation of the natural motion of the aortic valve annulus in coordination of the left ventricle, aortic annulus, sinus of Valsalva, and aorta compared to stented bioprosthetic and/or mechanical aortic valve replacements. Professor Ozaki has now performed 1000 Ozaki neoaortic valve reconstructive operations and has better than 95% freedom from re-operation at late follow-up. The objective of this study is to collect a large collection of prospective data from patients undergoing aortic neocuspidalization surgery for aortic valve insufficiency or stenosis isolated or combined with other procedures
The ASCEND post-market clinical follow-up study is undertaken to evaluate safety and clinical performance of the On-X Ascending Aortic Prosthesis (AAP) used in surgical aortic valve replacement.
The purpose of this observational registry is to report real-world safety and performance of VeriSight for ultrasound guided ICE imaging in percutaneous cardiac intervention procedures when used in standard clinical practice.
Study Objectives/Specific Aims Overall Goal: To study the outcomes of patients undergoing TAVI, their subsequent results and complications. - Objective 1: Identify risk factors that are predictive of the need for TAVI and CABG - Objective3:Assess early 3 months outcomes and postoperative results Outcome Measure: 1. All-cause mortality within 3 months. Secondary Outcome Measures: 1. Stroke 2. Myocardial infarction 3. Bleeding 4. Hospital stay 5. Acute kidney injury 6. Number of patients with conduction disturbance and pacemaker implantation 7. Gradient on implanted valve 8. Degree of transvalvular leakage 9. 6 weeks follow-up 10. 3 months Echo
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a rapidly growing treatment option for patients with aortic valve stenosis. Stroke is a feared complication of TAVI, with an incidence of around 4-5% in the first 30 days. Up to 50% of patients undergoing TAVI have an indication for oral anticoagulants (OAC) mostly for atrial fibrillation. OAC use during TAVI could increase bleeding complications, but interruption during TAVI may increase the risk for thromboembolic events (i.e. stroke, systemic embolism, myocardial infarction). Recent observational data suggest that periprocedural continuation of OAC is safe and might decrease the risk of stroke. Beside the potential reduction of thromboembolic events, continuation of OAC is associated with an evident clinical ancillary benefit for patients and staff. Since periprocedural OAC interruption not infrequently leads to misunderstanding and potentially dangerous situations, when patients are not properly informed before hospital admission or may experience difficulties with the interruption regimen. Hypothesis: Periprocedural continuation of oral anticoagulants is safe and might decrease thromboembolic complications without an increase in bleeding complications at 30 days
To collect information about treatment for symptomatic severe Aortic Regurgitation (AR), which affects the aortic valve in the heart. Aortic regurgitation is a condition where aortic valve in the heart does not close tightly and allows some blood to leak back into the heart chamber. Symptoms of aortic regurgitation may include fatigue and shortness of breath. The preferred treatment for severe aortic regurgitation is aortic valve replacement surgery.
This PAS is an observational, non-randomized, multi-center, single arm, clinical study to evaluate long term safety and effectiveness of the SJM™ Masters Series Hemodynamic Plus (HP) 15mm aortic mechanical heart valve (15 AHPJ-505) as a replacement device for pediatric patients with a diseased, damaged, or malfunctioning aortic valve.
The purpose of this study is to conduct the initial clinical investigation of the Foldax Polymer Aortic Valve to collect evidence on the device's safety and performance. The study is anticipated to confirm successful clinical safety and clinical effectiveness with significant improvements in clinical hemodynamic performance.
