Filter by:The Cardioband Transcatheter System (Cardioband) is indicated for the treatment of secondary (functional) mitral regurgitation (FMR). The Cardioband is a transcatheter system, deployed on the beating heart through a transseptal approach. The Cardioband is deployed along the posterior annulus of the mitral valve (MV) and is adjusted under trans-esophageal guidance on the beating heart. A CE mark study with 30 subjects has been completed and documented reduction of severity of mitral regurgitation (MR) and improvement in 6- minute walk test in subjects with moderate to severe MR. Study objectives are to test the efficacy of the Cardioband in improving MR and heart failure symptoms in patients with symptomatic (New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III-IVa), severe MR in the post-marketing setting, And to evaluate the safety of the Cardioband system in the post-marketing setting.
The study is comparing MitraClip® to Surgical therapy in high and intermediate risk patients, who should be older than 18 years, and shall evaluate safety and efficacy of MitraClip® vs. surgery in high or intermediate risk patients. The patients will be randomised (MitraClip® or Surgery). The Study Follow-Up includes 4 visits after procedure (hospital discharge, 1, 6, 12 months post-procedure).
Study to evaluate the safety and performance of the Twelve TMVR System
The purpose of this study is to determine whether intra- and postoperative use of the cardioPAT® cell saver decreases the need for allogenic red blood cell transfusion in patients, who undergo open heart surgery (with cardiopulmonary bypass) and preoperatively have an increased risk for bleeding.
This trial is a randomized study of the MitraClip device in heart failure patients with clinically significant functional mitral regurgitation. A hierarchical composite of all-cause mortality and recurrent heart failure hospitalizations is hypothesized to occur at a lower rate with the use of the MitraClip device in addition to optimal standard medical therapy compared to optimal standard of care therapy alone.
The purpose of this study is to compare early mitral valve repair versus a watchful waiting strategy in asymptomatic patients with severe organic mitral valve regurgitation and preserved left ventricular function.
The purpose of the trial is to demonstrate the safety and performance of the Medtentia Annuloplasty Ring (MAR) during mitral valve repair surgery. In addition, the trial aims to demonstrate that the MAR fulfills the requirements for mitral valve annuloplasty rings.
The V-Chordal System is a new technology for mitral repair. The Valtech V-Chordal system, consists in the ability to adjust (elongate or shorten) the neochordae "off-pump" to achieve an optimal coaptation. The adjustment mechanism allows overcoming the main problem of chordal replacement by enabling accurate sizing of the chords.
The primary objective of the MitraClip System Australia and New Zealand (ANZ) Clinical Trial is to gather real-world clinical and health-economic outcome data to support the long-term safety, efficacy and economic value of the MitraClip System in the continuum of therapies for treating MR. Specifically, the following clinical and economic data will be collected: New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Class, Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) distance, quality of life (QOL) information, echocardiographic measures of left ventricular size and function, and data associated with the index hospitalization, rehospitalizations, concomitant medications and discharge facility to support the MitraClip System economic analysis.
Functional Mitral regurgitation is a now well known entity due to tethering of the valve either mono-lateral, as happens in lateral myocardial infarction, or bilateral as happens in dilated cardiomyopathy. Treatment of this pathology, either conserving the valve and addressing regurgitation by mean of restrictive annuloplasty, or implanting a prosthesis remains controversial in terms of mid and long term benefit for the patient. The investigators propose a randomized controlled study to compare the efficacy of both technique in terms of mortality and freedom from reintervention.
