Study Summary

This trial is testing a new heart valve to see if it is safe and effective for people with a specific heart condition.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with severe aortic stenosis and bicuspid aortic valve disease who are at low risk for surgical valve replacement. Participants must be over 60, have no major health issues like blood disorders or recent heart attacks, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding. They should agree to follow-up visits.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The Medtronic TAVR system is being tested in this study to see if it's safe and effective for people with bicuspid aortic valves needing valve replacement but considered low-risk for traditional surgery.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions to materials used in the TAVR system, bleeding complications due to necessary anticoagulation therapy, infection risks, and possible impact on other heart valves.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What are the projected results of this experiment?

"This trial is set to span 7 days and will primarily measure the rate of mortality or disabling stroke over that period. Secondary targets are to examine hemodynamic performance metrics such as degree of transvalvular prosthetic regurgitation, total prosthetic valve regurgitation, and myocardial infarction at 30-day post-procedure intervals."

Answered by AI

Are there any unfilled slots remaining in this research trial?

"The clinicaltrials.gov website reveals that this trial, first launched on October 30th 2018, is not presently accepting new patients. However, there are 55 other studies currently recruiting volunteers at the moment."

Answered by AI

What is the geographical spread of this research initiative?

"Currently, 26 different trial sites are accepting participants. Locations include New Haven, Minneapolis and Des Moines along with other locations across the country. Choosing a nearby clinic may reduce your overall travel burden if you join this experimental study."
