Filter by:Study to evaluate the feasibility, safety and performance of the HighLife trans-septal Transcatheter Mitral Valve in patients with moderate-severe and severe mitral regurgitation who are at high risk for surgical treatment.
To evaluate whether patients after successful transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), who have concomitant, moderate to severe mitral regurgitation (MR) benefit from an additional treatment of this valve disease as well.
Prospective, single-arm, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and performance of the AltaValve for the treatment of moderate to severe or severe mitral valve regurgitation in subjects who are considered high risk for mortality and morbidity from conventional open-heart surgery.
Rationale: Severe asymptomatic organic Mitral Valve (MV) regurgitation with preserved left ventricular (LV) function is a challenging clinical entity as data on the recommended treatment strategy for these patients are scarce and conflicting, which is reflected in current guidelines. European guidelines advocate a more conservative strategy i.e. watchful waiting, with yearly echocardiography, whilst American guidelines are more in favour of early surgery to reconstruct the MV, i.e. MV repair (in contrast to MV replacement) in order to prevent future LV dysfunction and complaints. A number of non-randomised trials show a favourable outcome of early surgery: in the study of Enriquez-Sarano et al. for instance, the early surgery strategy has shown to be associated with improved long-term survival, decreased cardiac mortality, and decreased morbidity compared with the conservative management [1]. On the other hand, non-randomised trials describe also that a conservative strategy (i.e. watchful waiting) can be safely accomplished. If facilitated surgery is performed in this population (50% at 10 years follow-up according to Rosenhek et al [2]), it has proven to be eventually associated with good perioperative and postoperative outcome when careful follow-up is being carried out [2]. Objective: To compare early MV repair versus watchful waiting in asymptomatic patients with severe organic mitral valve regurgitation and preserved left ventricular function. Study design: Multicenter, registry trial. Study population: 250 Asymptomatic patients (18-75 years old) with severe organic MV regurgitation and preserved left ventricular function. The current European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines on Valvular Heart Disease will be applied [3]. These guidelines are also used in the Netherlands. Accordingly, patients with an indication for MV surgery will not be included. Intervention: Intervention will be early MV repair compared to a watchful waiting strategy.
Degenerative mitral insufficiency secondary to valve prolapse is the most common valve disease in Western countries. In the absence of specific treatment, it spontaneously progresses to heart failure and death when it is severe. Surgical mitral valve repair (or mitral plastic surgery) is the preferred treatment for primary mitral insufficiency by prolapse in case of severe leakage if associated with clinical and/or echocardiographic markers of poor prognosis (i.e., with high risk of morbi-mortality during their follow-up). It is therefore essential to refine the risk stratification of these patients in order to identify at-risk patients who should potentially benefit earlier from invasive care (cardiac surgery), or conversely, close monitoring. A number of echocardiographic and MRI parameters may have been associated with a poorer prognosis. A cohort of patients with primary mitral insufficiency (MI) will be followed to study the relationships of a set of factors to patient prognosis.
The Cardiovalve system is a replacement valve delivered through a transfemoral access and transseptal approach and is intended for symptomatic patients with Mitral regurgitation for whom surgical options are not feasible.
KALIOS is indicated for the surgical treatment of mitral regurgitation by mitral valve repair.It is intended for mitral valve repair using conventional open heart or minimally invasive techniques. The KALIOS device is an adjustable annuloplasty ring, to be implanted by open surgery, having a hollow structure that comprises a flat rigid ring surrounding a deformable cage. The unique feature of KALIOS is that its annular shape and dimension can be finely adjusted percutaneously by an external actuator (three-balloon catheter) independently in the three areas corresponding to P1, P2 and P3 The primary objective of this clinical investigation is to assess the safety and effectiveness of KALIOS for the surgical treatment of Mitral Regurgitation with optional intra-operative and/or post-operative adjustment(s) The secondary objectives are to investigate the effects of KALIOS for the surgical treatment of Mitral Regurgitation on cardiac function and on patient functional status This clinical trial is prospective, non-randomized, single arm, multicentric & international. Up to 100 patients are expected to be enrolled to obtain 62 evaluable patients at one year,presenting with primary (degenerative) or secondary (functional) mitral valve regurgitation and who are candidate to a mitral valve repair.
Mitral Touch System This device is designed to epicardially reshape the mitral valve annulus without the need for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and open heart access (atriotomy), in patients with left ventricular dilation and ischemic or functional MR (mitral regurgitation (MR)).
To establish the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) who have been determined to be at prohibitive risk for mitral valve surgery by the Heart Team, and in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) on guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT)
This study evaluates the addition of transcatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip device to medical treatment in patients with heart failure and moderate functional mitral regurgitation to determine the impact of left ventricular remodelling and patients' functional capacity.
