About this study

Official title: Mitral Valve Repair Using Flexible Bands Versus Complete Rings in Patients With Degenerative Mitral Valve Disease: a Prospective, Randomized Study

The study evaluates the results of mitral valve repair with flexible band in comparison with rigid ring in patients undergoing mitral valve repair for degenerative mitral valve disease

Read the detailed description

Currently, mitral ring selection is based on a surgeon's preference rather than evidence. Semirigid rings combine flexibility and stability; however, their clinical benefit has not been completely clarified. The present study aimed to compare the outcomes of mitral valve repair with a flexible posterior annuloplasty band versus complete semirigid ring in patients with degenerative mitral valve disease.

Being tested
Mitral valve repair, Ring annuloplasty with posterior band, Ring annuloplasty with complete ring
Medical subject headings
Mitral Valve Insufficiency

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. Freedom from significant mitral regurgitation

    Significant mitral regurgitation is defined as moderate and severe mitral regurgitation. The severity of MR was evaluated and defined in accordance with the European Association of Echocardiography recommendations for the assessment of valvular regurgitation

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Survival

    Continued existence at follow up

    Measured: 12 months, 24 months

  2. Freedom from reoperations

    Freedom from redo mitral valve surgery during follow up

    Measured: 12 months, 24 months

  3. Freedom from severe MR recurrence

    The severity of MR was evaluated and defined in accordance with the European Association of Echocardiography recommendations for the assessment of valvular regurgitation

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mitral valve repair, Ring annuloplasty with posterior band and Ring annuloplasty with complete ring in people with Mitral Regurgitation, run by Meshalkin Research Institute of Pathology of Circulation.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Sep 2017. 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 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?

Freedom from significant mitral regurgitation (time frame: 12 months). 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 NCT03278574, 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 12 Sep 2017.
