Asian heart valve study aims to solve TAVI puzzle
NCT ID NCT07240025
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how well two types of replacement heart valves (balloon-expandable vs. self-expanding) work in Asian patients with a naturally small aortic valve opening. Researchers will track 31 people for one year to see which valve type leads to fewer complications and better blood flow. The goal is to find the best approach for this specific group.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors choose the best valve type for Asian patients with a small aortic valve opening, improving long-term results.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, observational registry (31 participants) that only looks at existing data, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all Asian groups.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
Retrospective data collection will be carried out at multiple TAVI sites in Asia. Patients with severe AS who underwent TAVI (SEV/ BEV) will be identified from retrospective records (Physical/ Electronic). Consecutive patients who underwent pre-procedural computed tomography (CT) scans for aortic valve evaluation from 2018-1-1 to 2024-12-31 were included.
