Heart rhythm monitoring after aortic valve replacement
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial studies people who had a heart valve procedure called TAVI and later had a heart rhythm problem. You will get a tiny heart monitor placed under your skin to track your heart rhythm over time and help doctors understand how common these problems are.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You had severe aortic stenosis and got a TAVI procedure
- Your heartbeat had a new problem within a day after TAVI, like a bundle branch block, a slow heartbeat (AV block), or a temporary high-degree AV block that got better
- You got a small monitor (ILR) placed under your skin to watch your heart for a long time
- You do not already have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other heart device, and you don't need an urgent pacemaker now
- You are not pregnant and can accept the skin monitor

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses a portable heart monitor (like a Holter) for about 2 weeks after TAVI to check for hidden heart rhythm problems. It aims to find issues early so you get the right treatment.
This study tests whether continuing a beta-blocker (a heart medication) improves outcomes for people having a planned TAVR (a minimally invasive heart-valve replacement). It may help doctors decide whether to keep or stop this medicine after the procedure.
This study looks at whether electrical problems in the heart that appear after a TAVI valve replacement can go away on their own. It will help doctors decide which patients might need a pacemaker and which might get better without one.
This study looks at whether placing a permanent pacemaker as a precaution can prevent complications in people who have a right bundle branch block when they get a TAVR valve procedure. It may help reduce the need for emergency pacing after the procedure.
This study uses a portable heart monitor to watch for a serious heart rhythm problem called high-degree atrioventricular block in people who develop a new, persistent left bundle branch block after a TAVI valve procedure. It may help catch dangerous rhythm changes earlier and guide treatment sooner.
This study tests whether monitoring your heart rhythm at home using a portable ECG device after your aortic valve replacement procedure (TAVI) helps catch problems early. Researchers want to see if remote monitoring is safe and helpful for patients recovering from this procedure.
