NCT ID NCT06539416

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This trial tests whether doctors using mixed reality goggles (HoloLens 2.0) can perform MitraClip heart valve repair more efficiently and with less stress. Twenty adults with leaky mitral valves will undergo the standard clip procedure, but the surgeon will also wear a headset that projects 3D images of the heart. Researchers will measure procedure time, radiation exposure, and the surgeon's stress levels to see if the technology helps.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
MitraClip implantation (a procedure to repair a leaky heart valve) guided by mixed reality using HoloLens 2.0
What this could lead to
If successful, mixed reality could make MitraClip procedures faster, safer, and less stressful for doctors.
What could go wrong
This is a very small early study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The technology may not improve outcomes or could add complexity.
