About this study

Official title: Impact of Mitral Valve Annuloplasty on the Tricuspid Valve Complex

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of isolated mitral valve annuloplasty on the geometry and the function of the tricuspid valve complex.

Read the detailed description

The proposed pathogenesis of functional tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in mitral valve disease seems incomplete. Because both atrioventricular valves are closely connected to each other by means of the cardiac fibrous skeleton, the geometry of the tricuspid valve is likely to be distorted after ring-annuloplasty of the mitral valve. This could lead to the development of functional TR, or to an increase in TR severity. To test this hypothesis, a prospective study will be started in patients undergoing isolated mitral valve annuloplasty.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Mitral Valve AnnuloplastyProcedure or surgery

    Mitral valve annuloplasty by a rigid mitral ring, a semi-rigid ring, or a fully flexible band, at the surgeon's discretion

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Postoperative geometric changes in tricuspid valve annulus (TA)

    Measurement of changes in 3D descriptors of the TA (e.g. changes from baseline in the TA area of the best-fit plane in cm^2, and changes from baseline in the height of each TA point to the TA best-fit plane in mm)

    Measured: day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tricuspid (Valve); Deformity, run by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Postoperative geometric changes in tricuspid valve annulus (TA) (time frame: day 0). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 8 May 2018.
