Balloon Aortic Valvuloplasty During Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement

Completed
Conditions
Aortic Stenosis
Registration Number
NCT00584116
Lead Sponsor
University of California, Davis
Brief Summary

Prospective, two academic center, non-randomized pilot, acute in-patient study correlating pre-operative imaging studies, intra-operative measurements and intra-operative balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) in patients with degenerative aortic stenosis undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) to understand the requirements (device size and radial strength) of emerging percutaneous heart valve technologies in the treatment of aortic stenosis.
