New device aims to shield brain from stroke during heart surgery

NCT ID NCT05873816

Summary

This study tested a new device designed to catch tiny debris and prevent strokes during a common heart valve procedure called TAVR. Researchers compared the new device against a standard device and against performing the procedure with no protection. They used brain scans to see if the new device reduced injury and tracked patients for serious heart and brain complications for 30 days.
