Improving function and quality of life after heart valve repair
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how a less invasive heart valve procedure affects your day-to-day functioning and overall quality of life. If you’re already being considered for a transcatheter (catheter-based) valve replacement, you may be able to join to help understand what improvements patients experience.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your doctor must have selected you for a catheter-based heart valve replacement
- You must be able and willing to sign the study consent form
- You cannot join if you cannot sign written consent
- If you could become pregnant, you must not be pregnant or breastfeeding

This study tracks how well new heart valve replacement and repair devices work after they're implanted. Researchers will monitor your health over time to ensure the device is safe and functioning properly.
This trial looks at how the ascending aorta (the main artery near the heart) changes over time after transcatheter aortic valve replacement. It may help doctors predict who is at risk of aorta enlargement after this less-invasive valve procedure.
This study looks for biological markers in the blood that might help predict heart-related events in people with a narrowed aortic heart valve. It aims to improve care for those with this condition, whether or not they have a procedure called TAVI to replace the valve.
This study follows adults who are having aortic valve replacement (through surgery or a catheter) to see how often certain outcomes happen after the procedure. You may be asked for blood tests and scans at set times, and some people may also be offered a special CT scan.
This study records results of a minimally invasive procedure to replace a narrowed or leaking heart valve. It may help doctors understand how well the treatment works and what complications happen in Chinese patients.
This trial is studying how well a new type of heart valve works in real-life patients with aortic valve disease. It will help doctors understand if this valve is safe and effective for people who need a procedure called TAVR (transcatheter aortic valve replacement).
