Study Summary

This trial is testing a new kind of valve to treat tricuspid valve disease in children. The goal is to show that it is safe and to identify any necessary changes to the implant procedure or device.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients needing tricuspid valve replacement due to disease, including children with congenital issues. Participants must understand the procedure, agree to follow-ups, and not be involved in other conflicting studies. Exclusions include severe heart failure, high lung pressures, recent major heart attack or stroke, significant kidney or liver dysfunction, cancer treatment within a year (except certain skin/cervical cancers), pregnancy, emergency surgery needs, blood disorders uncorrectable by transfusion.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of the CorMatrix Cor TRICUSPID ECM Valve as a surgical replacement for damaged tricuspid valves. It follows an Early Feasibility Study (EFS) and includes patients who may also undergo additional cardiac procedures during implantation.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, potential risks could include reactions related to porcine material sensitivity since the valve is made from this source. Other general risks might involve complications from surgery such as infection or bleeding.
