Optimizing valve expansion during TAVI
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a technique to make sure the replacement heart valve expands evenly during a TAVI procedure for people with severe aortic stenosis. It may improve how well the new valve works.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have severe narrowing of your aortic valve (aortic stenosis).
- You are scheduled for a TAVI procedure done through an artery in your leg (trans-femoral).
- Your doctor plans to use the SAPIEN 3 Ultra or RESILIA balloon-expandable valve.
- Your aortic valve has either two leaflets (bicuspid) or three leaflets (tricuspid).
- You have NOT had a previous heart valve replacement that is now failing.

This trial tests two types of replacement heart valves (self-expanding and balloon-expanding) in people who have severe aortic stenosis (tight heart valve) and an enlarged aorta (the main blood vessel from the heart). The goal is to see which valve type works better for these patients.
This trial tests two types of artificial heart valves—one that expands on its own and one expanded with a balloon—in people with a widened upper aorta. The goal is to see which works better for your condition.
This trial tests a new way to position the Evolut FX+ valve in people with severe aortic stenosis. The goal is to improve how the valve lines up with your own heart structure, which may help it work better.
This study tests a “solution” approach using a self-expanding valve during TAVR (a less invasive way to replace a narrowed aortic valve). It aims to improve how well the valve fits and works in people with a specific heart valve shape (bicuspid aortic stenosis).
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 trial studies a new balloon used during a TAVI procedure to replace your aortic valve without open-heart surgery. It aims to see if the balloon is safe and works well for people with severe aortic stenosis.
