Ten-year follow-up after aortic valve replacement surgery
Part of Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This is a long-term follow-up study for people who had aortic valve replacement surgery at Oslo University Hospital. It aims to see how patients are doing 10 years after their surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery to replace your aortic valve (with a biological or mechanical valve).
- Your surgery may have also included a bypass (coronary artery bypass graft) or a replacement of part of your aorta (supracoronary tube graft).
- You must be able to understand, speak, and write Norwegian, and be able to complete questionnaires.
- You must be alive after your aortic valve replacement surgery.

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.
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 study looks at how people’s quality of life changes after a planned minimally invasive procedure to repair the aorta using EVAR, FEVAR, or BEVAR. It may help doctors better understand what recovery and day-to-day wellbeing are like for patients after this kind of treatment.
This study looks at how a less invasive heart valve procedure affects your day-to-day functioning and overall quality of life. If you’re already being considered for a transcatheter (catheter-based) valve replacement, you may be able to join to help understand what improvements patients experience.
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 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.
