What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests a special cannula that captures debris during high-risk heart valve surgery. The goal is to see if it reduces the chance of stroke, kidney injury, and delirium. About 842 patients aged 60 and older will be randomly assigned to receive either the new device or a standard cannula.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
CardioGard Embolic Protection Cannula (a device that combines a standard aortic cannula with a suction mechanism to capture debris during heart surgery)
What this could lead to
If it works, this device could reduce serious complications like stroke, kidney injury, and delirium after high-risk heart valve surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively early-stage trial, and the device may not significantly reduce complications. There is also a risk that the suction mechanism could cause other issues.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 60 years * Planned de novo or redo: * Surgical aortic valve replacement SAVR ± ascending aortic repair (if circulatory arrest is not required) ± CABG * Mitral valve replacement (MVR) ± CABG * Mitral Valve Repair + CABG, * Double/Triple valve surgery ± CABG; Ross procedure These procedures can be done via a full or minimal-access sternotomy (using central aortic perfusion cannulae) with legally marketed valve(s), and can be done in combination with an left atrial appendage (LAA) closure/excision or partial/complete Maze procedure. * Valve sparing aortic root replacement (David procedure) * Valve sparing aortic root replacement (David procedure) * No evidence of neurological impairment as defined by a NIHSS ≤1 and modified Rankin scale (mRS) ≤2 within 30 days prior to randomization * Ability to provide informed consent and comply with the protocol Exclusion Criteria: * History of clinical stroke within 3 months prior to randomization * Cerebral and or aortic arch arteriography or interventions within 3 days of the planned procedure * Coronary catheterization within 3 days of index procedure, and the required repeat NIHSS score post-catheterization is worse than the screening/baseline NIHSS score conducted prior to the catheterization * Active endocarditis at time of randomization with vegetation criteria * Clinical signs of cardiogenic shock or treatment with IV inotropic therapy prior to randomization * Participation in an interventional (drug or device) trial * Isolated mitral valve repair, isolated tricuspid valve repair or combined mitral valve repair and tricuspid valve repair * Anticipated requirement for prolonged mechanical ventilation greater than 48 hours after surgery in the opinion of the investigator * Planned concomitant carotid endarterectomy during index surgical procedure
