Checking how heart valve devices work in real life
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study checks how well certain heart valve devices work in real life for people who have already been treated. It helps doctors learn if these devices are safe and helpful over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have been treated for a heart valve problem with one of these devices: a replacement valve (placed through a tube or surgery), a clip repair for the mitral valve, or a ring/device for the tricuspid valve.
- You agree to take part in the study and sign a consent form.
- You are willing and able to come back for follow-up visits.

This study looks at how a less invasive heart valve procedure affects your day-to-day functioning and overall quality of life. If you’re already being considered for a transcatheter (catheter-based) valve replacement, you may be able to join to help understand what improvements patients experience.
This study looks at how heart devices like pacemakers affect the tricuspid valve over time. It uses ultrasound to check valve function and see if the device causes any problems.
This study compares two types of replacement heart valves used in a procedure to treat aortic stenosis (a narrowed heart valve). It aims to see which valve is safer by measuring tiny particles that may travel to the brain during the procedure.
This study looks for biological markers in the blood that might help predict heart-related events in people with a narrowed aortic heart valve. It aims to improve care for those with this condition, whether or not they have a procedure called TAVI to replace the valve.
This trial tests a new valve device placed through a small tube (catheter) to treat severe aortic stenosis, a condition where the aortic valve is narrowed and doesn't open fully. It's for patients who cannot have traditional open-heart surgery.
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.
