Heart Valve Surgery and Sleep Breathing Problems
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at whether fixing heart valve problems with minimally invasive procedures (TAVI or MTEER) can improve sleep-related breathing issues. Researchers will monitor your sleep patterns before and after your scheduled heart valve procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult scheduled to have a heart valve procedure (either TAVI for aortic valve or MTEER for mitral valve)
- You are able to participate in a sleep study (polysomnography), which involves wearing sensors overnight to monitor your breathing and sleep
- You can attend a follow-up visit 6 months after your procedure
- You do not have significant cognitive impairment or dementia that would prevent you from understanding and consenting to the study
- You are willing to provide written consent and participate in the study

This study compares how well patients recover after a minimally invasive heart valve procedure (TAVR) when given different types of sedation. The goal is to find which sedation approach helps patients feel better and recover faster after the procedure.
This trial compares two types of heart valve surgery: one through a small cut on the right side of the chest (minimally invasive) and one through a cut down the middle of the chest (traditional). It looks at how well patients recover right after surgery to see if one approach is safer or better.
This trial tests a structured, team-guided conversation to help you choose between two common valve procedures: SAVR (surgery) or TAVR (a less invasive procedure done through the groin). It may help you make a choice that fits your health goals and preferences.
This study is following people with heart valve disease (leaky or narrowed valves) to understand how the disease changes over time and what problems it may cause. It does not test a new treatment, but helps doctors learn more about valve disease progression.
This trial studies whether a new through-the-blood-vessel heart valve (TAVR) is safe and works well for people with severe aortic stenosis who are too risky for traditional surgery. If you qualify, you would be closely followed to check your symptoms and valve function over time.
This trial studies whether the Myval THV (a new heart valve) is safe and effective for adults who need TAVI, a procedure to replace a narrowed heart valve without open-heart surgery. You may be considered if a heart team says you’re a good candidate for this valve procedure and you’re willing to join the study.
