Cardiac ventricle disorder

This study is a patient registry that collects information on people with severe aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation who are treated with the Trilogy heart valve system, a device implanted via a catheter (TAVI) to replace the aortic valve without open-heart surgery. The goal …

This study tests whether evogliptin, a drug originally for diabetes, can slow calcium buildup in the aortic valve of people with mild-to-moderate aortic stenosis. About 580 adults will take either the drug or a placebo daily for two years. The main goal is to see if the drug redu…

This study compared two antiplatelet drug regimens after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for aortic stenosis. One group received ticagrelor alone, the other received aspirin plus clopidogrel. The goal was to see which caused fewer serious complications like bleedin…

This trial tests whether performing balloon aortic valvuloplasty without the blood thinner heparin reduces serious bleeding and blood vessel complications. About 94 adults with severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis will be randomly assigned to receive either heparin or a placebo du…

This early study tested a new procedure called SESAME that uses a wire threaded through blood vessels to slice away excess heart muscle in people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Only one adult participated before the study was terminated. The goal was to see if the technique co…

This study tested a device called Leaflex™ Performer, which is threaded through a blood vessel to the heart to score and loosen calcium buildup on stiff aortic valves. It was designed for people with severe aortic stenosis who cannot have standard valve surgery or replacement. Ho…

This study tested whether a drug called Polaramine can prevent dangerous drops in blood pressure when patients come off a heart-lung machine during aortic valve replacement. 18 adults took part. The goal was to see if the drug helps the body keep a stable blood pressure after sur…

This study aimed to see if the heart-lung machine used during heart surgery changes blood flow in the gut. Researchers checked blood flow under the tongue as a way to measure gut health. The study was stopped early and included only 21 adults having aortic valve replacement. It w…

This study was a large registry that planned to follow 180,000 patients in Germany with aortic valve problems (leaky or narrowed valves). The goal was to compare newer, less invasive treatments like TAVI with standard open-heart surgery to see which works best and for whom. Resea…
