New heart valve aims to improve tricuspid replacement outcomes
NCT ID NCT07684313
First seen Jul 06, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing a new artificial heart valve, called the TRIFORMIS RESILIA, for people who need their tricuspid valve replaced. The tricuspid valve controls blood flow between two right heart chambers. Researchers will follow 75 adults who receive this valve during surgery to see how well it works and how safe it is in real-world use. The study measures blood flow through the valve, heart function, and quality of life over time.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Edwards TRIFORMIS RESILIA heart valve
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could confirm that the TRIFORMIS RESILIA valve works well and is safe for people needing tricuspid valve replacement, potentially improving heart function and quality of life.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study with no comparison group, so results may not prove the valve is better than other options. Risks include valve leakage, blood flow issues, or need for additional procedures.
