This early study tested a device called the Edwards PASCAL system, which is threaded through a blood vessel to repair the tricuspid valve in the heart. The valve can leak, causing symptoms like shortness of breath and swelling. The study included 65 people with severe leakage who…

This study tested whether a new way of processing tissue for Edwards heart valves is safe and works well. 777 adults who needed a new aortic or mitral valve took part. Researchers checked for valve problems like wear or calcification over about a year, and will follow patients fo…

This study tested a new device called the Edwards PASCAL system, which repairs leaky mitral heart valves using a thin tube inserted through a blood vessel, avoiding open-heart surgery. It involved 124 adults with moderate-to-severe mitral regurgitation who were candidates for sur…

This study looked at the SAPIEN XT heart valve, which is placed through a thin tube (catheter) to fix a failed valve in the heart's right ventricle. Researchers wanted to confirm it is safe and works well. They enrolled 57 people with a narrowed or leaky heart valve conduit. The …

This study tested a new heart valve, the SAPIEN 3, in 58 Chinese patients with severe aortic stenosis who were at high risk for traditional open-heart surgery. The valve was implanted using a thin tube through a blood vessel, avoiding the need for open surgery. The main goal was …
