Study of outcomes after aortic valve replacement
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 18 or older
- Have aortic valve disease and be scheduled for aortic valve replacement (surgery or catheter procedure)
- Be able to read the study information and give informed consent
- Agree to follow the study visits, including blood draws and scans at specific times
- Have no major bleeding or major blood count problems (like very low platelets or low hemoglobin)

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 people who have aortic valve treatment to better predict how they will do in the long term. It may help doctors understand what outcomes to expect after the procedure and improve future care.
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 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 looks at whether replacing a narrowed heart valve early helps people who have severe aortic stenosis but no symptoms. You would be randomly assigned to early valve replacement or careful waiting with regular check-ups.
This trial tests if surgery to replace your aortic valve is safe and effective for people with severe aortic stenosis who are at low risk for complications. It compares surgery to another procedure to see which works best.
