Loop recorder for mitral valve heart condition
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a small heart monitor (loop recorder) can help people with a specific mitral valve condition called mitral annular disjunction. It's for patients who have scar tissue in their heart muscle shown on an MRI.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old
- You have a confirmed diagnosis of mitral annular disjunction on an echocardiogram
- An MRI shows late gadolinium enhancement (a sign of scarring) in your heart muscle
- You are able to give informed consent and are not under guardianship
- You do not have an active infection, cancer, or a prior implanted heart device (ICD or loop recorder)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies an “epicardial” device placed during planned heart surgery to reduce mitral valve leaking (“mitral regurgitation”). If you have moderate-to-severe valve leak from ischemic heart disease and are already scheduled for heart surgery, this may help improve how well the valve works.
This trial tests whether using an MRI to guide the placement of a defibrillator (ICD) helps people with weak hearts. It might offer a more precise way to implant the device.
This study tests whether a home telemonitoring system can help spot heart rhythm problems early in people with heart failure. It may help doctors detect rhythm issues sooner so treatment can be adjusted faster.
This trial studies people who had a heart valve procedure called TAVI and later had a heart rhythm problem. You will get a tiny heart monitor placed under your skin to track your heart rhythm over time and help doctors understand how common these problems are.
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 study is testing if a special heart monitor can help patients who need mitral valve repair surgery. If you are scheduled for this surgery, the monitor will be placed during your procedure to track your heart function and recovery.
