Shared decision-making for severe aortic stenosis
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a way to help people with severe aortic stenosis make informed choices about treatment. It may help you talk with your heart team about options like valve replacement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 65 and 85 years old
- You speak English or Spanish
- You have severe aortic stenosis (a heart valve problem)
- You have a scheduled visit with a cardiologist or heart surgeon on the heart valve team

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 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 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.
This trial tests a structured, team-guided conversation to help you choose between two common valve procedures: SAVR (surgery) or TAVR (a less invasive procedure done through the groin). It may help you make a choice that fits your health goals and preferences.
This trial tests whether using a special CT scan (CT-FFR) to guide treatment improves outcomes for people with severe aortic stenosis (a narrowed heart valve). It may help doctors decide between valve replacement surgery or a less invasive procedure.
This study looks at how safe and effective an emergency heart valve replacement is for people with severe aortic stenosis who are in critical condition. It may help if you have severe symptoms like shock or unstable chest pain that need urgent treatment.
