What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Subject's Percentage of Long Term Safety Performance	Long term safety performance will be evaluated by comparing the linearized yearly rates to the objective performance criteria (OPC) referenced in the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 1994 Draft Heart Valve Guidance. Expressed as the Number of late events divided by the total number of late patient years times 100. Late patient years are calculated from 31 days post-implant to the date of the last contact (follow up or adverse event).	31 days through 8 years post-implant
Number of Subject's in NYHA Functional Class I or II at 8 Year Post-Implant	The New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification system relates symptoms to everyday activities and the patient's quality of life. Class I. No limitation of physical activity. Ordinary physical activity does not cause undue fatigue, palpitation, dyspnea (shortness of breath). Class II. Slight limitation of physical activity. Comfortable at rest. Ordinary physical activity results in fatigue, palpitation, dyspnea (shortness of breath).	8 years post-implant
Subject's New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Class at 8 Years Post-Implant Compared to Baseline	The New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification system relates symptoms to everyday activities and the patient's quality of life. Class I. No limitation of physical activity. Ordinary physical activity does not cause undue fatigue, palpitation, dyspnea (shortness of breath). Class II. Slight limitation of physical activity. Comfortable at rest. Ordinary physical activity results in fatigue, palpitation, dyspnea (shortness of breath). Class III. Marked limitation of physical activity. Comfortable at rest. Less than ordinary activity causes fatigue, palpitation, or dyspnea. Class IV. Unable to carry on any physical activity without discomfort. Symptoms of heart failure at rest. If any physical activity is undertaken, discomfort increases.	8 Years post-implant

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Percent of Early Adverse Events	Number of early adverse events occurring within 30 days of procedure divided by the number of enrolled subjects times 100.	Events occurring within 30 days of procedure
Percentage of Late Adverse Events	Number of late events divided by the total number of late patient years times 100. Late patient years are calculated from 31 days post-implant to the date of the last contact (follow up or adverse event).	Events occurring >= 31 days and up through 8 years post-implant
Percent of Subjects With Freedom From Serious Adverse Events (SAE) Post-implant > 30 Days	Subject's freedom from Serious Adverse Events at > 30 days post-implant. Time to events were estimated by Kaplan-Meier method.	1 Year, 2 Years, 3 Years, 4 Years, 5 Years, 6 Years, 7 Years, and 8 Years post-implant
Subject's Average Peak Systolic Gradient (mmHg) Measurements at 8 Years Post-implant	Peak systolic gradient is the maximum value measured of flow of blood through the aortic valve as measured in millimeters of mercury. The data summary will be stratified by valve size.	8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Mean Systolic Gradient (mmHg) Measurements at 8 Years Post-implant.	Mean systolic gradient is the average flow of blood through the aortic valve measured in millimeters of mercury. Mean gradient values depend on the size and type of valve. The data summary will be stratified by valve size.	8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Effective Orifice Area Measurements at 8 Years Post-implant.	Effective orifice area represents the cross-sectional area of the blood flow downstream of the aortic valve. The data summary will be stratified by valve size.	8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Effective Orifice Area Index (EOAI) Measurements at 8 Years Post-implant.	Effective orifice area index represents the minimal cross-sectional area of the blood flow downstream of the aortic valve divided by the person's body surface area. The data summary will be stratified by valve size.	8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Performance Index Measurements at 8 Years Post-implant.	Performance index is defined as the subject's effective orifice area (the cross-sectional area of the blood flow downstream of the aortic valve) divided by the subject's native orifice area. The data summary will be stratified by valve size.	8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Cardiac Output Measurements at 8 Years Post-implant.	The amount of blood the heart pumps through the circulatory system in a minute. The data summary will be stratified by valve size.	8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Cardiac Index Measurements at 8 Years Post-implant.	Cardiac index is an assessment that divides the cardiac output from left ventricle in one minute by the person's body surface area (BSA), thus relating heart performance to the size of the individual. The data summary will be stratified by valve size.	8 years post-implant
Subject's Amount of Aortic Valvular Regurgitation at 8 Years Post-Implant.	Aortic valvular regurgitation occurs when the aortic valve in the heart does not close tightly allowing some of the blood that was pumped out of the heart to leak back into it. Aortic valvular regurgitation is evaluated by echocardiography over time. It is assessed on a scale from 0 to 4, where 0 represents no regurgitation and 4 represents severe regurgitation.	8 years post-implant
Subject's Average White Blood Cell Count Measurement Over Time.	Laboratory analysis of White Blood Cell Count on blood drawn from subject; WBC fight infection.	6 months and annually for 8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Red Blood Cells Count Over Time.	Laboratory Analysis of Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count on blood drawn from subjects; RBC carry oxygen.	6 months and annually for 8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Hematocrit Percentage Over Time.	Laboratory Analysis of Hematocrit Percentage on blood drawn from subjects. Hematocrit is the proportion of red blood cells to the fluid component (plasma) in the blood.	6 months and annually for 8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Hemoglobin Count Over Time.	Laboratory Analysis of Hemoglobin Count on blood drawn from subjects. Hemoglobin is an oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells.	6 months and annually for 8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Platelet Count Over Time.	Laboratory Analysis of Platelet Count on blood drawn from subjects; platelets help with blood clotting.	6 months and annually for 8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Serum Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Over Time.	Laboratory Analysis of Serum Lactate Dehydrogenase on blood drawn from subjects; The lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) test looks for signs of damage to the body's tissues.	6 months and annually for 8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Haptoglobin Measurement Over Time.	Laboratory Analysis of haptoglobin on blood drawn from subjects; haptoglobin is a protein produced by the liver.	6 months and annually for 8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Reticulocytes Percentage Over Time.	Laboratory Analysis of reticulocytes on blood drawn from subjects. Reticulocytes are newly produced immature red blood cells; a reticulocyte blood test measures the amount of these cells in the blood.	6 months and annually for 8 years post-implant
Subject's Average Score on the EQ-5D- Quality of Life Questionnaire at Baseline and 6 Months Post-Implant.	The EQ-5D is a standardized questionnaire that asks subjects to rate themselves (no problems, some problems, extreme problems) on mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. The scale ranges from a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 100 where zero is the 'worst state imaginable' and 100 is the 'best state imaginable'.	Baseline and 6 Months Post-Implant
