Aortic Valve Narrowing: Long-term Outcomes Study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows patients with aortic stenosis (a narrowing of the heart valve that controls blood flow from the heart) to understand how the condition progresses over time and what outcomes patients experience. By reviewing medical records and contacting patients for follow-up, researchers hope to better predict who is at higher risk and inform treatment decisions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) between January 2000 and November 2014 that showed aortic valve narrowing
- Your echocardiogram showed a specific measurement (maximum transaortic velocity ≥2.5 m/s) indicating aortic stenosis
- You are willing to participate and can be contacted by the research team
- You have not had aortic valve surgery before your echocardiogram in the study period

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at blood and/or body signals (called biomarkers) to understand why aortic valve narrowing may worsen and what outcomes people have. You may be able to help researchers by undergoing regular heart care plus additional testing like MRI or CT if you qualify.
This study follows people with moderate aortic valve disease to learn how their condition changes. It does not test a new treatment but will help doctors better understand the disease.
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 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 follows people with aortic stenosis who are getting a TAVI valve replacement. It uses imaging tests (MRI and CT) to learn more about the condition and improve future care.
This study looks at how well current treatment choices work for older adults with severe aortic valve narrowing (stenosis). It may help doctors better understand what works best for aging patients in Italy.
