Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Medtronic CoreValve® System in the treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis in subjects who have a predicted very high risk and high risk for aortic valve surgery.
The Valvuloplasty Scoring Balloon First-in-Man study is a prospective, single arm, two phase, observational registry to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the Valvuloplasty Scoring Balloon Catheter for the treatment of critical aortic valve stenosis.
SURVEY OF THE FIELD Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valve disease and increasing due to a growing elderly population. The therapy is aortic valve replacement (AVR). Studies on postoperative rehabilitation of AS pts are scarce. In the few studies available, a mix of valve diseases is presented without considering the differences in pathophysiology and the training regimes are not clearly described. PURPOSE, AIMS & HYPOTHESIS The investigators purpose is to evaluate whether a supervised cardiac rehabilitation program improves the objective physical capacity and quality of life (QoL) of patients after AVR due to AS, and compare this to patients training by their own. The investigators hypothesize that supervised exercise training may be a more efficient way of rehabilitating these patients. DESIGN This is a controlled randomized clinical trial comparing 12 weeks of supervised exercise training 3 times per week to home-based training based upon public health recommendations of minimum level of physical activity. SIGNIFICANCE & IMPLEMENTATION Positive results would support that an organized program of exercise training improves physical capacity and QoL in AS patients following AVR with potential benefit for both patients and society.
Collect and evaluate the long term safety data.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the SJM Portico Transcatheter Heart Valve and the SJM TAVI Transfemoral Transcatheter delivery system in subjects with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS).
The purpose of this first-in-human study is to assess the technical feasibility, deployment characteristics, and safety of the 23mm SJM Transfemoral Transcatheter Heart Valve and delivery system in subjects with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS). This is a single center, prospective, non-randomized, first-in-human investigational study without concurrent or matched controls.
The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and performance of the Direct Flow Medical study valve and delivery procedure.
This is a research study using the Keystone Heart Embolic Deflection Device and involving patients with aortic stenosis (a disease of the aortic valve), to be treated with Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR). The TAVR procedure consists in replacing the diseased aortic valve by a new artificial valve. The new valve is put into place using a long, thin tube called a catheter that is inserted into a small incision (cut) in the patient's groin and threaded through his/her arteries up to the heart.
The purpose of this clinical investigation is to confirm that the safety and performance of the EDWARDS INTUITY Valve System.
The primary objective of the present trial is to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of the MDT-2111 in the treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis in subjects deemed difficult for surgical operation.
