Filter by:To evaluate the safety and performance of the HLT System in patients with severe aortic stenosis who present at high risk for aortic valve replacement surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine that Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with SAPIEN 3 is superior to traditional surgical aortic valve replacement(SAVR) with bio-prosthesis regarding the rate of all-cause mortality at 1 year in patients with symptomatic severe aortic valve stenosis.
The aortic valve is located between the left ventricle and the aorta. Patients with symptomatic, severe aortic valve stenosis conventionally have it surgically replaced requiring direct access to the heart through the chest. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is now a well-established alternative for treating severe aortic valve stenosis. Both types of intervention improve prognosis and alleviate symptoms. The optimal choice of blood thinning therapy after TAVR is unknown. It has been reported that leaflet thrombosis with reduced leaflet motion can occur and this phenomenon has been suggested to be potentially related with neurological events. In addition, the occurence of this phenomenon can be reduced with anticoagulation blood thinning therapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if anticoagulation compared to the usual double platelet inhibitor therapy after TAVR can reduce the risk of leaflet thrombosis.
The goal of this study is to describe the increase in plasma serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in patient with increased severity of aortic stenosis and increased weight cardiac muscle.
A randomized clinical trial investigating transcatheter (TAVR) versus surgical (SAVR) aortic valve replacement in patients 75 years of age or younger suffering from severe aortic valve stenosis. Study hypothesis: The clinical outcome (death of any cause, stroke and rehospitalization (related to the procedure, valve or heart failure)) obtained within one year after TAVR is non-inferior to SAVR.
The objective of this study is to evaluate feasibility, safety and effectiveness of the first generation transfemoral JenaValve Pericardial TAVR System (formerly named JenaValve TAVI Plus System- Transfemoral) in an elderly patient population with severe aortic stenosis who are at high risk for surgical aortic valve replacement.
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is now the method of choice to treat aortic stenosis in old and frail patients. Antiplatelet therapy must be associated for the procedure and during few weeks after implantation in the aim to minimize cerebral embolization. But for now, the best antiplatelet regimen has to be determined. In this context, investigators want to evaluate the safety of use of ticagrelor alone versus standardized therapy which involves lysine acetylsalicylate and clopidogrel. In this study, we will randomly compare 154 patients in each group in terms of early safety (30 days) after the procedure.
The TAVI - Register is a Germany-wide scientific elevation in which data about the aortic valve treatment and the therapeutic consequences are documented.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a minimally invasive procedure for older adults with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis who are considered high risk for surgical aortic valve replacement. Despite symptomatic and survival benefits, many patients experience functional decline after TAVR. This pilot study aims to test the feasibility of a home-based exercise intervention targeting endurance, strength, and balance as well as cognitive behavioral intervention to improve physical functioning and disability after TAVR.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in Chinese population.
