Study Summary
This trial will test the safety and effectiveness of the Carpentier-Edwards Magna Mitral Valve in patients undergoing mitral valve replacement.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who need a mitral valve replacement, are stable enough to survive surgery and be discharged, can attend follow-ups, and have signed consent forms. It's not for those with life-threatening non-cardiac diseases, recent endocarditis, pregnancy or lactation, drug abuse issues, imprisonment status or involvement in other drug/device trials.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to confirm the long-term safety and effectiveness of Carpentier-Edwards PERIMOUNT Magna Mitral Valves in patients needing mitral valve replacements. This may include additional procedures that require cardiopulmonary bypass during the implantation process.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, typical risks associated with heart valve replacement surgeries can include bleeding complications, infection risk at the surgical site or within the body (endocarditis), stroke due to blood clots forming on the new valve which could travel to brain vessels causing blockage.
