Filter by:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the TaurusTrio™ Heart Valve System in a patient population with symptomatic severe AR requiring replacement/repair of their native aortic valve that are at high risk for open surgical aortic valve replacement/repair (SAVR).
The main objective of this study is to assess the preliminary safety and effectiveness of the J-Valve TF System in patients with symptomatic severe native aortic regurgitation who are judged by a multi-disciplinary heart team to be eligible for the device and to be at high risk for open surgical aortic valve replacement.
The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with severe native valve aortic insufficiency. It is a multicentre, observational cohort study. The primary endpoint consisted of a composite of all-cause death, disabling stroke, or rehospitalization for heart failure at 12 months postoperatively. According to previous research results and opinions of expert groups, the sample size was expected to be 76 cases.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has a high risk and a high mortality rate in the treatment of aortic stenosis/regurgitation patients with cardiac insufficiency. The investigators aim to discuss the clinical efficacy of extracorporeal life support system(ECLS) during TAVR procedure in severe aortic lesion under very low ejection fraction (EF).
The purpose of the study is to compare the various 2D and 3D methods of valvular heart disease quantification (Doppler, PISA, VCA, volumetric method) and strain with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) measurements of left and right ventricular systolic function strain and myocardial fibrosis assessment.
The primary treatment for patients determined to have severe aortic or mitral regurgitation is surgical repair or replacement their valves. The most commonly used tool to quantify the severity mitral and aortic regurgitation is echocardiography. Studies have shown that echocardiography may have significant limitations in quantifying regurgitant volume. MRI has recently been shown to easily and reproducibly quantify regurgitation. To better understand how to accurately quantify severity of regurgitation the investigators propose this study with the following aims: 1) compare MRI to echocardiography in the evaluation of regurgitant volume in patients with aortic or mitral regurgitation and 2) to assess which technique is better at predicting the response of the left ventricle to valve surgery.
Aortic valve replacement with a biological prosthesis is the most common valve surgery performed with about 1000 operations performed in Denmark each year. Further, the introduction of percutaneous stent valves will increase these types of replacements in the years to come. A biological valve is a foreign body prone to cause thrombus formation at least until the valve is covered with recipient endothelium. There are no conclusive studies of anticoagulation and the investigators have shown stroke to be a common complication. Guidelines have variably recommended aspirin or rivaroxaban for anticoagulation, and currently aspirin is the most common recommendation. In a register study, the investigators have shown that proper anticoagulation with warfarin is likely to be superior. There is a clear need for a large randomised study of aspirin versus anticoagulation for biological aortic valve replacement. This protocol describes a randomised study where 1000 patients will be randomised to receive either rivaroxaban or aspirin for 6 months following aortic valve replacement with a biological prosthesis. The primary efficacy endpoint is a combined event of all-cause mortality and hospitalisation for either acute myocardial infarction or stroke. This study has the power to settle a discussion of appropriate anticoagulation for this operation
