Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Critical Aortic Stenosis
Registration Number
NCT00530894
Lead Sponsor
Edwards Lifesciences
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the device and delivery systems (transfemoral and transapical) in high risk, symptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis.

Detailed Description

Subjects will undergo a physical exam and screening tests will be performed to determine if they are either A) a patient with a high surgical risk or B) not a candidate for surgery. They will then be randomized (like the flip of a coin) to have the investigational device implanted or to receive the current surgical or medical management available.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Functional Change of NYHABaseline to 1 year

NYHA classification change from baseline to 1 year visit. NYHA provides a way of classifying the extent of heart failure. New York Heart Association (NYHA) is a functional classification of heart failure based on how much a patient is limited during physical activity. The rating ranges from I - IV, with the lowest (I) as no limitations and the highest (IV) unable to carry on any physical activity without discomfort.

Number of Participants With Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebro-vascular Events (MACCE)1 year

Number of participants with MACCE definition includes death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke and renal failure

Total Hospital Days From the Index Procedure1 year

Total hospital days from the index procedure or randomization into control arm to one year post procedure or randomization.

Change in Quality of Life (QOL) From Baseline to 1 YearBaseline and 1 Year

The QOL questionnaire consisted of: Kansas City Cardiomyopathy (KCCQ), The Medical Outcomes Study Short-Form 12 (SF-12) - physical and metal states.

KCCQ scores are on a range of 0-100, in which 100 reflects the best health status and 0 reflects the worst health status.

SF-12 questionnaire was used in which 100 reflects the best health status and 0 reflects the worst health status.
