Summary
This study tested a new heart valve (SAPIEN XT) in 57 people whose surgically-placed valve or tube between the heart and lungs was not working properly. The goal was to see if the valve could safely reduce leakage or blockage without needing another open-heart surgery. The study confirmed the valve's safety and effectiveness in a real-world setting.
