Pressure-based evaluation of heart valve improvement during TAVI
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how well the new heart valve works after a TAVI procedure, using pressure measurements to see if blood flow improves. It aims to confirm that the treatment is effective for people with severe aortic stenosis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 60 and 90 years old.
- You have severe aortic stenosis (a narrowed heart valve) and your doctor has recommended a TAVI procedure to replace it.
- You are willing to give written consent to participate.
- You do not have an active infection, uncontrolled disease, cancer, or a life expectancy of less than one month.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have an irregular heartbeat that is not well controlled.

This study looks at how replacing a narrowed heart valve affects fluid in the lungs. It may help doctors better understand recovery after this procedure.
This study looks at two different ways of expanding a new heart valve during a minimally invasive procedure called TAVI. It aims to find out which method gives the best fit and function of the valve in people with severe aortic stenosis (a narrowed heart valve).
This study tests whether a less invasive valve replacement (TAVI) can be done safely in hospitals that don't have a full heart surgery team on site. If you have severe aortic stenosis and are 70 or older, this trial might offer a new option with a shorter recovery than open-heart surgery.
This study tests whether TAVI (a procedure to replace your heart valve without open-heart surgery) can be done safely at centers that do not have on-site heart surgery backup. It looks at how well patients do after the procedure, focusing on safety and recovery.
This study tests whether a procedure called TAVI (a valve replacement done through a tube in the leg) can help people with severe aortic stenosis who are in cardiogenic shock, a dangerous condition where the heart can't pump enough blood. The goal is to see if urgent valve replacement improves survival.
This study compares two ways of guiding a procedure to replace your aortic heart valve: using ultrasound (echo) instead of the usual X-ray (fluoroscopy). The aim is to see if the ultrasound method works just as well and is safer.
