Sizing device for heart valve repair surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new tool to help surgeons choose the right size ring during mitral valve repair surgery. It may make the repair fit better and improve outcomes.

Who can take part
- You are scheduled to have surgery to repair your mitral valve
- You are 18 years old or older
- You are not having an emergency operation
- You do not have an active heart valve infection

This study looks at how long a new mitral valve treatment/device can stay working in people with moderate-to-severe or severe mitral valve leak. It may help avoid or delay surgery for people considered higher risk for mitral valve repair.
This trial tests a new device called MRace that may fix a leaky mitral valve without open-heart surgery. It's for people whose valve leaks severely and who can't have standard surgery due to other health issues.
This trial tests a new device to fix a leaky mitral valve without open-heart surgery. It is for people with severe mitral regurgitation who are too high-risk for traditional surgery.
This trial tests a new device called AMEND™ that is placed through a vein in the leg to repair a leaky mitral valve without open-heart surgery. It is for people with significant mitral regurgitation who are at high risk for surgery.
