Follow-up study for specific heart valve repair ring implants
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows people who are going to get certain types of heart valve repair rings or bands. It aims to track safety and outcomes after the Abbott device is implanted in routine care over follow-up visits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re planning heart surgery within the next 90 days that includes an eligible valve repair ring/band implant
- Your surgery must be done by a study doctor (an investigator at the study site)
- You are at least 18 years old
- You can sign consent in writing and you agree to attend required follow-up visits
- You must not have an active heart infection of the heart valve (endocarditis) at the time of the implant

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two surgical options (a band versus a ring) to treat tricuspid valve regurgitation, which means blood leaks backward through the tricuspid valve. It may help your heart work more efficiently and reduce symptoms by testing which device works better for people with the right valve problem.
This registry is a large, ongoing study that collects information about Abbott heart devices used in routine care. It helps doctors learn how well these devices work and how patients are doing over time, without changing your treatment plan.
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 study looks at how long a new mitral valve treatment/device can stay working in people with moderate-to-severe or severe mitral valve leak. It may help avoid or delay surgery for people considered higher risk for mitral valve repair.
This trial tests a new device to fix a leaky mitral valve without open-heart surgery. It is for people with severe mitral regurgitation who are too high-risk for traditional surgery.
This trial studies a minimally invasive mitral valve repair/replacement approach for people with severe mitral regurgitation (leaky mitral valve) who are not good candidates for standard surgery or catheter options. It may help improve symptoms by treating the leaky valve when other treatments aren’t suitable.
