This large study compared two treatments for severe aortic stenosis (a narrowed heart valve) in 1,746 patients at intermediate risk for surgery. One group got a less invasive procedure called TAVI (a new valve inserted through a tube in the artery), and the other had open-heart s…

This study tests a special chimney graft technique for people with a type of aortic aneurysm that is hard to treat because it is close to the kidneys. The goal is to see if this method is safe and works well in everyday medical practice. About 150 adults will take part, and resea…

This study looks at how well the Harmony Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve (TPV) works when used by doctors in everyday practice. It involves 174 people with congenital heart disease who need a new pulmonary valve. The main goal is to see if the valve works properly without needing a…

This study compares two types of TAVR devices (self-expanding vs. balloon-expandable) in over 1,100 people with severe aortic stenosis and a small aortic annulus. The goal is to see which device leads to fewer deaths, strokes, or hospitalizations, and which performs better over t…

This study tests whether a less invasive heart valve replacement (TAVR) is safe and effective for people with moderate aortic stenosis, a condition where the heart's aortic valve is partially blocked. About 650 participants will receive the TAVR device and be monitored for compli…

This study tests whether a less invasive procedure called TAVR (replacing the aortic valve through a tube in an artery) is as safe and effective as open-heart surgery for people with severe aortic stenosis who are otherwise healthy enough for surgery. About 2,200 participants wil…

This study is testing a less invasive procedure called TAVR to replace the aortic valve in 150 people who have a bicuspid aortic valve (a valve with two flaps instead of three) and severe narrowing. The goal is to see if it is safe and works well for people who are at low risk fo…

This study tests a new device called the Intrepid Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement System for people with severe mitral regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) who are too high-risk for open-heart surgery. The goal is to see if the device is safe and works well. About 128 parti…

This study tests a new heart valve device, the Medtronic CoreValve Evolut PRO, in 52 Chinese patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at high risk for open-heart surgery. The device is inserted through a catheter, avoiding major surgery. Researchers are checking how safe and …
