The Medtronic CoreValve™ Evolut R™ FORWARD Study
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Medtronic CoreValve™ Evolut R™ System for Aortic Valve Stenosis. Completed, enrolled 1,060 participants across 54 sites in 21 countries.
Detailed Summary
Prospective, single arm, multi-center, observational, post market study to document the clinical and device performance outcomes of the Evolut R system used in routine hospital practice in a large patient cohort for the treatment of symptomatic native aortic valve stenosis or a stenosed, insufficient, or combined surgical bioprosthetic valve failure necessitating valve replacement.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The Evolut R System is intended for relief of aortic stenosis in patients with symptomatic heart disease due to severe native calcific aortic stenosis who are judged by a heart team, to be at high or extreme risk for open heart surgery. The Evolut R TAV treats aortic stenosis by displacing and functionally replacing the dysfunctional native valve with a bioprosthetic valve delivered on a catheter while the heart is still beating, thus avoiding the risks of cardiopulmonary bypass. Its intended performance is to relieve aortic valve stenosis without inducing significant regurgitation, thereby restoring effective aortic valve function.
