Exercise and Heart Health After Mitral Valve Treatment
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how well your heart and muscles work during exercise after a mitral valve procedure. It also checks stiffness of your main artery (aorta) and oxygen levels in your muscles.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- You have had a mitral valve procedure (like a balloon or surgery) for mitral stenosis or you are a healthy volunteer
- If you are a patient, at least 3 months must have passed since your mitral valve procedure
- If you are a patient, you have not had a separate procedure on your aortic valve
- You do not have an active infection
- You do not have any orthopedic, neurological, or mental health conditions that would limit your ability to exercise

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial uses a special MRI and blood tests to see how heart muscle is affected after aortic or mitral valve surgery. It may help doctors better understand and monitor heart recovery.
This trial tests a phase one cardiac rehabilitation program for people who have had their mitral or aortic heart valve replaced. It aims to see if the rehab helps recovery. You might qualify if you had planned (not emergency) valve surgery and are stable enough for light exercise.
This study at Mayo Clinic uses MRI and other tests to see how the heart's main pumping chamber changes shape after robot-assisted mitral valve repair surgery for severe mitral regurgitation. It may help doctors better understand how patients recover.
This study looks at heart rhythm problems in people having mitral valve surgery to fix a leaky valve. It may help doctors better understand who is at risk for dangerous rhythms.
This trial focuses on people with severe mitral valve narrowing or leaking who still have symptoms even after the best usual medications. It may help find better care and measure health outcomes when surgery is judged too risky or not suitable.
This study looks at how well your heart performs during exercise before and after you have a procedure to manage your atrial fibrillation (either a pacemaker with ablation or cardioversion). The goal is to see if these treatments improve your heart's function and exercise ability.
