About this study

Official title: Long-Term Effects of Aortic Valve Mismatch on Functional Ability and Remodeling the Left Ventricular After Aortic Valve Replacement Mechanics

The real impact of the existence of an aortic valve mismatch after aortic valve replacement in various studies conducted so far is a source of controversy. There is currently no long-term impact of the aortic valve mismatch on the reversal of left ventricular remodeling and its impact functional.To evaluate these effects of aortic valve mismatch on abilities to the effort, the quality of life and the regression of left ventricular hypertrophy long term after a aortic valve replacement, conducting a new study is fundamental. This study is even more essential in patients with a young life expectancy theoretical long and physical activity.Our study aims to determine whether the existence of an aortic valve mismatch has an influence on: The functional capacity to the effort by measuring the maximum oxygen consumption during a stress test (VO2 max) The reversal of left ventricular remodeling (cardiac ultrasound doppler), diastolic dysfunction (cardiac ultrasound and Doppler measurement Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP). This study will analyse these data in patients who received youth a VAN by mechanical aortic valve prosthesis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing exercise training and subjects are asked to exercise during 20 or 30 minutes in people with THE LEFT VENTRICULAR REMODELING AFTER MECHANICAL AORTIC VALVE REPLACEMENT, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

variations in VO2 max during an effort (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00854698, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Dec 2025.
