TAVR for aortic regurgitation guided by ultrasound
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a less invasive heart valve replacement (TAVR) for people with a leaky aortic valve (aortic regurgitation). It uses ultrasound guidance to place the new valve, which may offer a treatment option for those who cannot have open-heart surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have severe aortic regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) confirmed by ultrasound.
- You have symptoms (like shortness of breath, chest discomfort, or fatigue) OR the leaky valve is causing your heart to struggle, even if you feel fine.
- A team of heart doctors decides that TAVR is the best option for you, possibly because surgery is too risky.
- You do not have an active heart infection or a major infection in your body.
- You do not have a severe widening (aneurysm) or tear in your aorta that needs surgery, and your valve area fits the device size.

This trial is testing a less invasive procedure (TAVR) to fix a leaky aortic valve without open-heart surgery. It's for people with severe aortic regurgitation who are either having symptoms or showing signs of heart strain, and who are not good candidates for traditional surgery.
This trial tests whether a 3D computer simulation can help guide a less invasive procedure (TAVR) to replace a leaky aortic valve. It may be an option for people with severe aortic regurgitation who are at least 65 years old.
This trial tests whether a new valve replacement procedure (TAVR) is safe and effective for people with severe aortic regurgitation, a leaky heart valve. It is designed for patients who are not good candidates for open-heart surgery because of other health conditions.
This trial compares a new less-invasive valve replacement (Trilogy TAVR) with standard open-heart surgery for people with significant aortic regurgitation. It aims to see which treatment works better for patients who are eligible for both procedures.
This trial compares different methods to evaluate coronary artery disease in patients planning to have a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis. The goal is to find out if a less invasive approach is as safe and effective as the standard one.
This study is testing a new, less invasive heart valve system (TaurusTrio) for people with severe aortic regurgitation (a leaky aortic valve) who cannot have open-heart surgery. It aims to see if the valve is safe and works well to improve symptoms.
