Percutaneous mitral valve repair with the MitraClip® system has emerged as a therapeutic alternative to surgical valve repair (PMVR) in high risk patients. The aim of this registry is to collect prospectively and systematically clinical research data from patients undergoing PMVR with the MitraClip® system. This registry is an open-end …
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of the GEMINUS system in patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. This is a prospective, open label, multicentre, single arm, first in human clinical study. Clinical follow up for all patients will be performed at 30 days, …
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Prizvalve Pro™ transcatheter aortic valve system in the treatment of patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at high risk of surgery or who are not suitable for surgery.
The hypothesis is that SEV result in superior valvular hemodynamics (more pronounced during exercise) and exercise capacity relative to BEV. Furthermore, the hypothesis is that stress CMR will be able to demonstrate differences in these hemodynamic parameters. CMR will also provide refined assessment of paravalvular leak and its impact on …
The current American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) guidelines recommend surgery in patient with mitral regurgitation (MR) based on 1) the severity of MR and 2) the presence or absence of symptoms. Studies have shown that Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) is an accurate method to quantify the severity of …
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease (CAD), are the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Despite remarkable advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, CAD continues to pose formidable challenges. Atherosclerosis, characterized by the deposition of lipids, inflammatory cells, and fibrous tissue within the arterial walls, is the fundamental pathology underpinning …
A multicentre cross-sectional cohort study to assess the difference in bioprosthetic micro-calcification activity, detected with 18F-NaF PET-CT, as early marker of transcatheter valve degeneration, between patients with vs. without subclinical leaflet thrombosis at five years after TAVI; and between patients with intra-annular vs. supra-annular TAVI prostheses.
Heart valve diseases are among the most serious cardiovascular conditions in older age. One of the most common forms is aortic valve stenosis, a narrowing of the valve opening between the left ventricle and the main artery. As the valve becomes tighter, the heart must work harder and harder to …
Aortic valve stenosis is the most common valve disease leading to surgical or percutaneous intervention in Europe and North America. Percutaneous aortic valve replacement (TAVI) is currently recommended for the management of patients with symptomatic aortic stenosis and with high; very high operative risk of aortic valve replacement surgery or …
This is a prospective, observational, multicenter study aimed at characterizing tricuspid valve remodeling in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) without significant tricuspid regurgitation (TR), in relation to AF burden progression.
