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.

This trial compares two methods (ultrasound vs X-ray) to guide a minimally invasive heart valve replacement procedure for people with severe aortic stenosis. The goal is to see if using ultrasound alone is as safe and effective as using X-ray.
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 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 looks at whether pressure readings taken during a heart procedure can help predict how well patients with severe aortic stenosis improve after getting a new aortic valve (TAVI). It aims to find better ways to track progress using standard pressure measurements.
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.
This study collects extra imaging data from 40 people who are already scheduled for a routine TAVI procedure to replace a narrowed aortic heart valve. The goal is to better understand the valve's structure and function using scans.
