MITRAL REGURGITATION

This study is testing a new balloon-expandable heart valve designed to replace failing mitral valves without open-heart surgery. It's for people who are at high or greater risk for traditional surgery and have either a failing previous valve replacement or a repaired native valve…

This registry will track the safety and performance of a minimally invasive mitral valve replacement device in 150 European patients. The device is for people with severe leaky heart valves who are not suitable candidates for open-heart surgery. Researchers will monitor how well …

This study aims to find out if it's better to fix two leaky heart valves at once or just the main one. Researchers will compare two procedures in 404 patients with severe valve leaks to see which approach leads to fewer deaths, fewer hospital stays for heart failure, and better q…

This study aims to see if a newer, more detailed heart imaging technique called speckle tracking echocardiography can better predict patient survival and outcomes after mitral valve surgery compared to current standard imaging methods. Researchers will enroll 300 adults with seve…

This study aims to find out how common hidden, symptomless irregular heartbeats are in people with a significant leak in their mitral heart valve. Researchers will implant a small heart monitor under the skin of 100 participants and track their heart rhythm for up to three years.…
