Heart valve repair device tracked for 10 years in new study

NCT ID NCT07413926

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study follows 110 patients who had mitral valve repair surgery using the Chord-X system to see how well the device holds up over 10 years. Researchers will check for return of moderate-to-severe mitral regurgitation and other safety issues. Participants agree to share their medical history and attend routine follow-up visits. The goal is to improve future care for people with leaky heart valves.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Chord-X system implant (a device to repair the mitral valve)

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could confirm that the Chord-X device provides lasting repair for mitral regurgitation, reducing the need for repeat surgeries.

What could go wrong

This is an observational follow-up study, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove the device works better than alternatives. Results depend on routine clinic visits and may not apply to all patients.
