Valve replacement for severe mitral valve disease in high-risk adults
This trial tests a less-invasive way to treat severe mitral valve problems using a transcatheter valve. It may help people who are too high-risk for standard open-heart mitral surgery by improving symptoms and heart function.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07309029Recruiting
ECMO support during high-risk TAVR heart valve procedure
This trial tests whether placing patients on ECMO (a heart-lung support machine) before a high-risk TAVR valve replacement can improve safety and outcomes. It is for people who are at very high risk due to low blood pressure, severe heart or lung problems, or complex valve anatomy.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18–100 - NCT04722796Recruiting
TAVR for bicuspid aortic valve with a specific device
This study tests a “solution” approach using a self-expanding valve during TAVR (a less invasive way to replace a narrowed aortic valve). It aims to improve how well the valve fits and works in people with a specific heart valve shape (bicuspid aortic stenosis).
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 60 years+ - NCT05002543Recruiting
Real-world study of heart valve repair devices for multiple valves
This study checks how well and how safely CORCYM valve devices work in real-world patients with heart valve problems in the aortic, mitral, and/or tricuspid positions. It may help doctors understand expected outcomes outside of tightly controlled research settings.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges Any age - NCT04514445Recruiting
Study of genes in people with bicuspid aortic valve
This study looks for genetic (inherited) differences that may be linked to bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). It includes people with BAV and close family members to help understand why BAV happens and whether genes play a role.
KetteringAges 10–99 - NCT07449130Recruiting
AI screening for valve disease using chest CT scans
This study uses a computer AI to look at routine chest CT scans and find people who might have valvular heart disease (problems with the heart's valves). It aims to see if AI can help catch these issues early, so you can get the right care sooner.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06369870RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve block for pain after minimally invasive aortic valve surgery
This trial tests a nerve block (injection of numbing medicine near the chest wall) to control pain after aortic valve replacement through a small right-sided chest incision. It may help reduce pain and the need for strong painkillers after surgery.
Ghent, East-FlandersAges 18 years+ - NCT06518317RecruitingPhase 3
Short vs Long Blood Thinner Use After TAVI
This trial compares a short course versus a longer course of antiplatelet medicine (blood thinners) after a TAVI procedure for aortic stenosis. It aims to see which approach is safer and more effective.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT07354841Recruiting
Testing safety of heart-lung machine tubes
This study tests two types of tubes used during heart surgery to connect you to a heart-lung machine. It aims to see if they work safely and effectively.
Bari, BAAges 18 years+ - NCT07434193Recruiting
Pacing study after aortic valve replacement
This trial tests if special pacing of the heart's lower chambers (called cardiac resynchronization therapy, or CRT) can help people who develop a new electrical delay in the heart after having a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI). The study compares two types of pacing to see which works better for recovery.
BudapestAges 18 years+ - NCT07030062Recruiting
Echo-guided aortic valve replacement (Echo TAVR)
This trial tests a way to replace your aortic valve using only ultrasound (echo) instead of X-rays or dye. It may be a good fit if you have severe aortic stenosis and need to avoid contrast or radiation because of kidney problems or cancer risk.
BeijingAges Any age - NCT03549559Recruiting
Heart imaging study in healthy people and specific conditions
This study uses heart imaging to look at changes in the heart muscle. It includes healthy volunteers and people with diabetes or aortic stenosis, to understand differences seen on scans.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT04139616Recruiting
Testing a planned heart rhythm plan after aortic valve replacement
This study tests an algorithm—a step-by-step plan—for how doctors manage abnormal heart rhythms after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). It may help guide safer, more consistent care in the weeks after the procedure.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06066970Recruiting
Studying heart markers after valve surgery
This trial uses a special MRI and blood tests to see how heart muscle is affected after aortic or mitral valve surgery. It may help doctors better understand and monitor heart recovery.
Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT05172960Recruiting
Study of a new heart valve for severe aortic stenosis
This trial tests a new version of a heart valve (SAPIEN X4) placed without open-heart surgery. It's for people with severe aortic stenosis who have symptoms like shortness of breath or chest pain.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT07390903Recruiting
Heart function test for difficult bypass weaning
This trial studies whether a heart ultrasound test called GLS can help predict complications when patients are taken off the heart-lung machine after heart surgery. It aims to improve management for better outcomes.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT07415447Recruiting
Aorta repair study: heart and vessel changes after stent procedure
This study looks at how the heart changes after a minimally invasive procedure to fix an aortic aneurysm. It uses imaging to track heart function and structure over time.
LisbonAges 18 years+ - NCT07431710Recruiting
AI-guided chest compressions for cardiac arrest in the ER
This trial tests whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help doctors give better chest compressions during CPR for adults whose hearts stopped outside the hospital. The goal is to improve blood flow and outcomes without using special equipment in the ambulance.
New Taipei City, BanqiaoAges 20 years+ - NCT06571175Enrolling by invitation
Measuring heart scarring in aortic stenosis patients
This study uses imaging to measure heart scarring in people with aortic stenosis, a condition where the heart valve is narrowed. It aims to better understand how scarring affects long-term outcomes.
Trondheim, TrøndelagAges 18–90 - NCT07130994Recruiting
Testing a new less invasive mitral valve replacement (SATURN)
This trial tests a new, less invasive device called the SATURN system to replace a severely leaky mitral heart valve without open-heart surgery. It is for people who are too high-risk for traditional surgery and are willing to take blood thinners.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06833762Recruiting
Predicting improvement after TAVI using exercise tests
This trial looks at whether a simple exercise test (called CPET) can help predict how much your heart function will improve after TAVI, a procedure to replace a narrowed heart valve. If you're scheduled for TAVI through your leg artery and are 18 or older, you might be able to join.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07075861Recruiting
A study of a new heart valve for people too sick for surgery
This study is testing a new valve device (JenaValve Trilogy) that can be placed without open-heart surgery. It may be an option for people whose heart team says regular valve replacement surgery is too risky.
