How original valve problem affects new valve's long-term health
This study looks at how the original problem with your aortic valve (narrowing, leaking, or both) might affect how long the replacement valve stays healthy. If you had both your aortic and mitral valves replaced, doctors want to track how well the new valve works over time.

Heart rehab after valve replacement surgery
This trial tests a phase one cardiac rehabilitation program for people who have had their mitral or aortic heart valve replaced. It aims to see if the rehab helps recovery. You might qualify if you had planned (not emergency) valve surgery and are stable enough for light exercise.
QinaAges 40–55 - NCT07151989Enrolling by invitation
How valve disease type affects new valve durability
This study looks at people who had their mitral valve replaced to see if the original valve problem (tight vs leaky) affects how long the new valve lasts. It may help doctors understand which patients need closer follow-up.
Maastricht, MaastrichtAges 18 years+ - NCT07150559Recruiting
Arch-clamping under mild cooling for acute aortic dissection
This trial tests a surgical technique called arch-clamping under mild hypothermia (cooling the body slightly during surgery) to treat acute type A aortic dissection. It may help patients who need immediate total aortic arch replacement.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07275983Recruiting
Knee replacement recovery: spinal vs. general anesthesia
This study looks at recovery after total knee replacement surgery. It compares people who had spinal anesthesia (numbing the lower body) to those who had general anesthesia (being fully asleep) to see which group recovers better.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06799910Recruiting
Optimizing fluid balance with bioelectrical impedance during dialysis in ICU
This trial tests a method to better manage fluid levels in critically ill patients who are receiving a type of dialysis (CVVH) for kidney failure. It uses a device (bioelectrical impedance) to measure fluid in the body, which may help doctors give the right amount of fluids more safely.
SalouëlAges 18 years+ - NCT07003932Recruiting
Remote monitoring after knee replacement surgery
This trial tests a remote monitoring program for people having knee replacement surgery. It uses a smartphone app to track your recovery, so you can stay in touch with your care team without needing extra clinic visits.
Oslo, Please SelectAges 50 years+ - NCT07281885Recruiting
Aromatherapy for nausea after joint replacement
This study tests whether aromatherapy with essential oils can help reduce nausea and vomiting after total joint replacement surgery. Participants will receive a simple aromatherapy treatment alongside their regular care.
Wong Tai Sin, Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT07469072RecruitingPhase 2
Nafamostat doses for dialysis blood thinning in ICU
This trial is testing different doses of a blood thinner called nafamostat in patients who are in the ICU and need continuous kidney dialysis (CRRT). The goal is to find which dose works best to prevent clots in the dialysis machine without causing bleeding problems.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06238960Recruiting
Home-based physical therapy after hip replacement
This trial tests whether doing physical therapy at home using video calls works as well as in-person therapy after a hip replacement. You would continue your rehab with the same team, but from home.
Bologna, ItaliaAges 50–80 - NCT07183592Recruiting
Changing IV tubing in the ICU: does less often harm?
This trial compares changing the tubing attached to central lines every 4 days versus every 7 days, to see if less frequent changes cause more infections. If you have a central line in the ICU that will stay in for at least a week, this study may help decide the safest schedule.
Saint-Pierre, La RéunionAges 18 years+ - NCT07675213Recruiting
Uterine muscle movements and pregnancy after frozen embryo transfer
This trial explores how natural uterine contractions affect pregnancy success in women using hormone therapy for frozen embryo transfer. It may help doctors understand if uterine activity influences implantation.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 18–42 - NCT06953206Recruiting
Long-term study of a new heart valve for aortic stenosis
This study is testing a new heart valve called the SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA valve for people with severe aortic stenosis. Researchers want to see how well it works and how safe it is over 10 years after a minimally invasive valve replacement procedure called TAVI.
Bad Oeynhausen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT07118501Recruiting
Study of the Incompass total ankle system
This study is testing a new ankle replacement device called Incompass. It aims to see how well the device works and how safe it is for people who need ankle replacement surgery.

VeronaAges 18 years+ - NCT03242642Recruiting
Testing a new catheter procedure to replace a leaking mitral valve
This trial studies whether a new catheter-based system can replace a badly leaking mitral valve in people who have symptoms. It may help if you can’t safely get current approved valve treatments or standard surgery.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03636295RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a lower INR goal to reduce bleeding in mechanical valves
This Phase 3 study tests whether aiming for a lower blood-thinning test result (INR) can reduce bleeding risk in people with a specific type of mechanical heart valve. The trial checks if this lower INR goal is safer while still protecting against dangerous clots.
Genk, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT03836521Recruiting
Registry for valve replacement in bicuspid aortic stenosis patients
This registry collects information about adults with severe narrowing of the aortic valve caused by a bicuspid (two-leaflet) valve shape, especially if symptoms are present. It may help doctors better understand who benefits from a catheter-based valve replacement (TAVR).

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for replacement?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 502 recruiting replacement studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a replacement trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a replacement trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
