Heart valve study reveals which replacement lasts longer
NCT ID NCT07168889
Summary
This study looked back at health records to compare two types of artificial mitral valves in patients aged 70 or younger. Researchers followed over 3,500 Austrian patients for up to 10 years after their surgery to see whether mechanical valves or biological valves help people live longer and avoid repeat operations. The goal was to provide real-world evidence to help doctors and patients choose the best valve type for long-term heart health.
