Arm or groin? study seeks safer route for heart valve procedure
NCT ID NCT07399392
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 600 people getting a new heart valve through a tube in the leg (TAVI). Doctors want to know if using a second tube in the arm (radial artery) instead of the groin (femoral artery) causes fewer bleeding or blood vessel problems. The goal is to find the safest way to do this common heart procedure.
