Guiding TAVI with a new angiographic method
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to use X-ray images during a TAVI procedure to check how well the new valve is working right away. It may help doctors make real-time adjustments to improve the outcome.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have severe aortic valve narrowing (aortic stenosis) and your heart team has decided TAVI is the right treatment.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You agree to take part and sign a consent form.
- You are willing to come for follow-up visits.
- You do not have cardiogenic shock, severe kidney problems, or a history of TAVI or surgical valve replacement.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares two ways of guiding a procedure to replace your aortic heart valve: using ultrasound (echo) instead of the usual X-ray (fluoroscopy). The aim is to see if the ultrasound method works just as well and is safer.
This trial is testing a new way to replace your aortic valve using a small tube through your armpit, guided only by ultrasound (echocardiography) instead of X-rays. It may be an option if you have severe aortic stenosis and are a good fit for this less invasive approach.
This study looks at how well the new heart valve works after a TAVI procedure, using pressure measurements to see if blood flow improves. It aims to confirm that the treatment is effective for people with severe aortic stenosis.
This trial looks at how well a new method (using echo) compares to the standard invasive method for measuring pressure across the new valve after TAVI. It may help doctors monitor your valve function with less risk.
This study tests whether TAVI (a procedure to replace your heart valve without open-heart surgery) can be done safely at centers that do not have on-site heart surgery backup. It looks at how well patients do after the procedure, focusing on safety and recovery.
This study follows people with aortic stenosis who are getting a TAVI valve replacement. It uses imaging tests (MRI and CT) to learn more about the condition and improve future care.
