Mitral valve elasticity study during replacement

Mitral Valve Disease

Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.

This trial measures the stretchiness (elasticity) of the mitral valve during surgery in people who are having it replaced. It helps doctors understand how valve stiffness relates to heart health.

Study for severe mitral valve disease when surgery isn’t an option

This trial focuses on people with severe mitral valve narrowing or leaking who still have symptoms even after the best usual medications. It may help find better care and measure health outcomes when surgery is judged too risky or not suitable.

Study registry for mitral valve replacement by catheter

This study keeps a registry of adults who have a mitral valve problem and are being evaluated for a catheter-based mitral valve replacement. It helps doctors understand what treatments are used and how patients do.

Registry study for choosing a mitral valve treatment

This study collects and compares real-world results to help doctors choose the best treatment for mitral valve “leakiness.” If you have clinically significant mitral insufficiency and have already had a specific heart procedure screening, your echocardiogram results may be used to understand outcomes over at least a month.

Heart monitor study before and after mitral valve surgery

This study is testing if a special heart monitor can help patients who need mitral valve repair surgery. If you are scheduled for this surgery, the monitor will be placed during your procedure to track your heart function and recovery.

How valve disease type affects new valve durability

This study looks at people who had their mitral valve replaced to see if the original valve problem (tight vs leaky) affects how long the new valve lasts. It may help doctors understand which patients need closer follow-up.

Testing a device to treat leaking mitral valve

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.
