About this study

This study is to analyse if the size of the valve can be determined with a preoperative CT scan of the heart in order to prepare the valve preoperatively to save time.

Read the detailed description

Patients with severe aortic stenosis undergo aortic valve replacement (AVR). One approach to reduce trauma and operation time is the implantation of a sutureless valve to reduce aortic cross-clamp time due to the missing necessity of suturing the valve. Until now, sizing of the valve was determined intraoperatively using the measuring devices provided by the product manufacturer. Due to the implantation mechanism, the valve has to be collapsed after determination of the size. This is consuming time and can seriously delay the procedure.

This study is to analyse if the size of the valve can be determined with a preoperative CT scan of the heart in order to prepare the valve preoperatively to save time.

Being tested
Sorin Perceval ® Sutureless Valve (Sorin Group Italia Srl, 13040 Saluggia, Italy), available in different sizes (S 19-21mm, M 21-23mm, L 23-25mm, XL 25-27mm)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Valve Stenosis, run by University Hospital, Basel, Switzerland at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 2 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 20 Jul 2023. 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 Switzerland. 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?

accuracy of aortic valve sizing by preoperative CT scan of the heart (time frame: during surgery procedure). 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 20 Jul 2023.
