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)

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.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
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)
Echocardiographic evaluation of the anatomical facts e.g. Left ventricular outflow area
postprocedure before discharge (less than 30 days after implant)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mortality 30 days after implant
Time Frame: 30 days
Mortality
30 days
Morbidity 30 days after implant
Time Frame: 30 days
Morbidity

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
