Surgery for tricuspid valve leaks after prior heart surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at different surgeries for a leaky tricuspid valve that happened after earlier heart surgery. It may help doctors learn which approach works best for patients like you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had heart surgery between 1999 and 2023 that caused a leaky tricuspid valve.
- You are 16 years or older.
- Your leaky valve is not caused by a lung condition called primary pulmonary hypertension.
- Your medical records are complete enough for the study.

This study looks at what happens to adults with moderate-to-severe or severe tricuspid valve “leaking” after different treatment types, such as catheter-based or surgery. It may help doctors understand which approach works best for people with severe valve leakage and symptoms.
This study looks at whether doing a tricuspid valve repair at the same time as left-heart valve surgery is helpful for people who have mild tricuspid valve leakage. It may reduce future valve problems, but your eligibility depends on your heart valve type and recent health history.
This study tests a new catheter-based device to repair a leaky tricuspid heart valve (tricuspid regurgitation) in people who still have symptoms like shortness of breath or swelling despite taking heart medications. The goal is to see if the procedure is safe and can help reduce the leak.
This trial studies a catheter-based repair to help fix a leaky tricuspid valve (regurgitation), especially when you’re also having another heart surgery. It aims to improve valve function and symptoms while tracking safety and outcomes.
This trial tests a catheter-based procedure (done through the blood vessels) to repair a severely leaky tricuspid valve. It may help people with symptoms or past hospitalizations from tricuspid valve leakage who are higher-risk for standard surgery.
This study looks at people with moderate or severe leakage in the tricuspid valve (a valve in the right side of the heart) to understand how the condition develops and what outcomes patients experience. Researchers want to learn more about this condition so they can improve care.
