NCT ID NCT03193801
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a less invasive way to replace a failing mitral valve in the heart. About 53 people who already have a surgical valve that is not working well will receive a new valve placed inside the old one using a thin tube. The goal is to see if this procedure is safe and helps people live longer and feel better.
