Heart valve study using a non-invasive skin test
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a special skin test (impedance cardiography) that may detect heart muscle changes in people with aortic stenosis. It could help doctors decide when valve replacement is needed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have moderate or severe aortic stenosis.
- You have had or are scheduled for a heart MRI with contrast.
- You do not have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or other electronic heart implant.
- You do not have metal implants (like IUD, braces, or metal fragments) in your body.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.

This study tests whether remote monitoring (checking in from home) can help people with a common heart valve condition called aortic stenosis. It aims to see if this approach can keep you out of the hospital and improve your quality of life.
This study looks at how aortic stenosis (a narrowing of the heart valve) changes over time using imaging and blood tests. It may help doctors better understand and treat this condition.
This study develops and tests a new way to diagnose severe aortic stenosis (narrowing of the aortic valve) by measuring calcium buildup on the valve using heart ultrasound. If you're already getting both an ultrasound and a CT scan of your heart, this study compares how well the ultrasound method can identify severe stenosis.
This study looks at how heart mechanics, blood markers, and frailty relate to symptoms and heart measurements in people with aortic stenosis (a stiff, narrowed heart valve). It may help doctors better understand who is at higher risk and how disease changes over time.
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.
This study looks at blood and/or body signals (called biomarkers) to understand why aortic valve narrowing may worsen and what outcomes people have. You may be able to help researchers by undergoing regular heart care plus additional testing like MRI or CT if you qualify.
