TAVI's effect on gut bacteria in aortic stenosis
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how a heart valve procedure called TAVI affects the bacteria in your gut. It may help doctors understand how the procedure impacts your overall health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have severe aortic stenosis that your doctor says can be treated with a TAVI procedure.
- You have not taken antibiotics, steroids, antivirals, probiotics, or any new medications in the last month.
- You do not have inflammatory bowel disease (like Crohn's or ulcerative colitis).
- You are not on dialysis for kidney failure, and you do not have end-stage liver disease.
- You do not have an active infection, untreated cancer, or a history of substance abuse.

This study looks at how the bacteria in your gut might be linked to a heart condition called aortic stenosis, where the heart's main valve becomes stiff and narrow. By comparing people with and without this condition, researchers hope to find new ways to treat it.
This trial is for people with severe aortic stenosis who are already scheduled for TAVI (a procedure to replace a narrowed heart valve). It looks at how individual differences affect the procedure's outcomes.
This study looks at how replacing a narrowed heart valve affects fluid in the lungs. It may help doctors better understand recovery after this procedure.
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 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 looks for biological markers in the blood that might help predict heart-related events in people with a narrowed aortic heart valve. It aims to improve care for those with this condition, whether or not they have a procedure called TAVI to replace the valve.
