New heart valve procedure tested to fix deadly leaks without major surgery
NCT ID NCT04221490
Summary
This study is testing a new device called the EVOQUE system, which is designed to replace a leaky tricuspid heart valve using a catheter inserted through a blood vessel, avoiding open-heart surgery. The trial aims to see if this procedure is safe and effective at reducing severe valve leakage and improving symptoms like shortness of breath and swelling in patients who are not well-managed with medication alone. It involves 228 participants at multiple medical centers.
