About this study

Official title: PAR I - Prothesis-to-Annulus Relation (PAR) as Predictor of Hemodynamic Outcome in Aortic Valve Replacement

The Prosthesis-to-Annulus Relation I (PAR I) trial is a German multicenter study assessing the relation between the prosthetic GOA and the area of LVOT as potentially new parameter for the prediction of hemodynamic outcome. The results may possibly guide future valve size selection an may allow prediction of functionally relevant PPM (Patient-Prosthesis-Mismatch)

Read the detailed description

Great debates revolve around the hemodynamic performance of prosthetic tissue valves. It is influenced by the design and the specific sizing strategy. Design determines the actual geometric orifice area (GOA), sizing strategy the actual size of the selected valve. Currently, hemodynamic performance is generally assessed by determining the effective orifice area (EOA, derived from the continuity equation by relating flow velocities and LVOT area). The question whether a prosthesis patient mismatch (PPM) is present is then addressed by relating EOA to body surface area (EOAi). However, this relation may not be reasonable because EOAi relates flow velocity twice to patient-specific anatomic parameters (LVOT area and body surface area) . Considering this potential methodological flaw, debate and confusion regarding PPM is easily understood, despite the fact that, intuitively leaving a gradient behind after aortic valve replacement cannot be irrelevant. Thus a reliable and comparable method to determine the presence of PPM is needed. In PAR I Trial the relation between true prothetic GOA and LVOT area will be assesses as a potentially new parameter for prediction of hemodynamic outcome, to possibly guide future valve size selection (inclusive valve-in-valve) and to allow the detection of functionally relevant PPM. In the trial it will be assessed how anatomic dimensions of patients and implanted valves relate to each other and whether they allow the prediction of hemodynamic outcome.

What is being measured

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

  1. recording of hemodynamic outcome of a aortic valve in mutual dependence of anatomical facts on the basis of echocardiographic parameter

    Echocardiographic evaluation of the anatomical facts e.g. Left ventricular outflow area

    Measured: postprocedure before discharge (less than 30 days after implant)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mortality 30 days after implant

    Mortality

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Morbidity 30 days after implant

    Morbidity

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Valve Disease, run by Abbott Medical Devices at 7 sites in Germany.

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 0 inclusion and 7 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 7 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Germany. 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?

recording of hemodynamic outcome of a aortic valve in mutual dependence of anatomical facts on the basis of echocardiographic parameter (time frame: postprocedure before discharge (less than 30 days after implant)). 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 7 Feb 2019.
