New balloon safety in TAVI for severe aortic stenosis
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial studies a new balloon used during a TAVI procedure to replace your aortic valve without open-heart surgery. It aims to see if the balloon is safe and works well for people with severe aortic stenosis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have severe aortic stenosis (a tight valve) and symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath.
- Your heart team has agreed that TAVI is the right procedure for you.
- You are 18 years or older and willing to follow the study plan.
- The TAVI will be done through an artery in your leg (transfemoral approach).
- You do not have a permanent pacemaker or certain pre-existing heart blocks.

This trial studies whether a new through-the-blood-vessel heart valve (TAVR) is safe and works well for people with severe aortic stenosis who are too risky for traditional surgery. If you qualify, you would be closely followed to check your symptoms and valve function over time.
This study checks whether an “investigational” transcatheter aortic valve is safe and works well for people with severe, calcified aortic stenosis (a stiff, narrowed heart valve). It may help improve valve function and symptoms, but you must meet specific heart, scan, and health-status requirements.
This study compares regular monitoring (“clinical surveillance”) versus replacing the aortic valve using a minimally invasive procedure called TAVR for people with moderate aortic stenosis. It aims to see which approach better reduces symptoms or heart damage over time.
This trial tests a new type of aortic valve replacement that can be inserted without open-heart surgery. It's designed for people with severe aortic stenosis who are not suitable for a standard operation.
This study tests a new replacement valve for the aortic heart valve, delivered through a catheter (a thin tube) — a procedure called TAVR. It is for people who have severe aortic stenosis and are not good candidates for open-heart surgery.
This study tests whether a less invasive valve replacement (TAVI) can be done safely in hospitals that don't have a full heart surgery team on site. If you have severe aortic stenosis and are 70 or older, this trial might offer a new option with a shorter recovery than open-heart surgery.
