NCT ID: NCT04737135 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Congenital Heart Disease

Myocardial FIbrosis in Repaired Tetralogy of FAllot- FIFA Study)

FIFA
Start date: July 9, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

This study aims to study the correlation between biomarkers of myocardial fibrosis (extracellular volume fraction calculated by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (T1-mapping) and levels of molecular biomarkers of fibrosis) and adverse events in a population of patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot.

Prospective Evaluation of Programmed Ventricular Stimulation Before Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Patients With Tetralogy of Fallot

Start date: January 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Severe pulmonary regurgitation is common in patients with Tetralogy of Fallot and results in progressive right ventricular dilatation and dysfunction. Pulmonary valve replacement is frequent in this population, and percutaneous procedures are increasing. Ventricular arrhythmias are a frequent late complication in patients with tetralogy of Fallot. The most common critical isthmus of ventricular tachycardias is between the pulmonary valve and the ventricular septal defect patch. While an electrophysiology study is sometimes performed in expert centers before surgical pulmonary valve replacement to guide a surgical ablation if needed, this approach is not recommended in current guidelines. An electrophysiology study should also be considered before percutaneous pulmonary valve replacement, as a part of the critical isthmus may be covered by the prosthetic pulmonary valve. Moreover, ablation after percutaneous pulmonary valve insertion exposes patients to the risks of traumatic valve or stent injury and infectious endocarditis. At present, reliable predictors to identify high-risk patients in whom an electrophysiology study should be performed before pulmonary valve replacement are lacking. The aim of this study is to assess prospectively the yield of systematic electrophysiology study and programmed ventricular stimulation before surgical and percutaneous pulmonary valve replacement in patients with tetralogy of Fallot.
