17 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
To assess the safety and feasibility of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) with commercially available bioprostheses in patients with severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) who are low-risk (STS score ≤3%) for surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR).
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Medtronic CoreValve® System for the treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis in subjects with significant comorbidities in whom the risk of surgical aortic valve replacement has a predicted operative mortality or serious, irreversible morbidity risk of ≥50% at 30 days.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Medtronic CoreValve® System in the treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis in subjects who have a predicted very high risk and high risk for aortic valve surgery.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Medtronic CoreValve® System in the treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis in subjects who have a predicted high risk for aortic valve surgery and/or very high risk for aortic valve surgery.
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the acute safety and effectiveness of the next-generation Navitor (Portico™ NG) Transcatheter Aortic Heart Valve as assessed by the rate of all-cause mortality at 30 days and the rate of moderate or greater paravalvular leak at 30 days in a high or extreme surgical risk patient population to support CE (Conformité Européenne) Mark and FDA approval.
The purpose of this trial is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards SAPIEN 3 transcatheter heart valve and delivery systems which are intended for use in patients with symptomatic, calcific, severe aortic stenosis, and are in high risk.
The purpose of this trial is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards SAPIEN 3 transcatheter heart valve and delivery systems which are intended for use in patients with symptomatic, calcific, and severe aortic stenosis, and those with intermediate risk.
The purpose of this trial is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards SAPIEN XT transcatheter heart valve and delivery systems which are intended for use in patients with symptomatic, calcific, severe aortic stenosis.
This study will monitor the safety and valve performance of the Edwards CENTERA Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) System in patients with symptomatic, severe, calcific aortic stenosis who are at intermediate operative risk for surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR).
The purpose of the study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with severe, symptomatic Aortic Stenosis (AS) at intermediate surgical risk by randomizing patients to either Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement (SAVR) or TAVI with the Medtronic CoreValve® System. Single Arm: The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of transcatheter aortic valve implementation (TAVI) in patients with severe symptomatic Aortic Stenosis (AS) at intermediate surgical risk with TAVI. This is a non-randomized phase of the pivotal clinical trial.
The investigators seek to determine the feasibility of assessing neurologic injuries subsequent to transcathether aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Such a model has been applied previously by the principal investigator to assess and improve neurologic outcomes for other cardiac surgical procedures. The investigators shall assess patients during the following intervals: pre-procedure, within 72-96 hours post-procedure, and 3 months post-procedure. Case videos will be established to assist in identifying and associating emboli (using transcranial Doppler) and processes of clinical care during the TAVR procedure. Neurologic injury will be assessed in the following ways: stroke (neurologic exam, NIH Stroke Scale), silent infarcts (diffusion-weighted MRI, diffusion-tensor imaging), and neurobehavioral deficits (a battery of neuropsychological tests). Secondly, the investigators will investigate changes in the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), a measure of sleep-disordered breathing, before vs after surgery between those subjects who develop post-operative acute brain infarction and those who do not. The investigators hypothesize that subjects who develop acute brain infarction will have an increase in AHI between baseline and post-op measurements compared with those subjects who do not develop acute brain infarction. A research coordinator will coordinate the testing.
The TVT Registry™ is a benchmarking tool developed to track patient safety and real-world outcomes related to the transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedure. Created by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) and the American College of Cardiology (ACC), the TVT Registry is designed to monitor the safety and efficacy of this new procedure for the treatment of aortic stenosis.
The Sentinel System will be a safe and effective method for capturing and removing embolic material (thrombus/debris) during transcatheter aortic valve replacement in order to reduce the ischemic burden in the cerebral anterior circulation.
To evaluate the safety and feasibility of DurAVR™ THV System in the treatment of subjects with symptomatic severe native aortic stenosis.
To collect information about treatment for severe aortic stenosis (AS), which affects the aortic valve in the heart. Aortic stenosis is a narrowing of the aortic valve opening, which decreases blood flow from the heart and causes symptoms such as chest pain, fainting and shortness of breath. The preferred treatment for severe aortic stenosis is aortic valve replacement surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the device and delivery systems (transfemoral and transapical) in high risk, symptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the SAPIEN XT™ THV with the associated delivery system for inoperable patients with severe symptomatic native aortic stenosis.
