How this study is set up

The points below are drawn from the public registry record for this study. Each one cites the field or sentence it came from. A dash (—) means the record does not state something — not that it is missing or wrong. Many well-run studies, especially small ones, leave some of these blank.

Trial stature

Three independent measures of this study, described from its registry record — not a recommendation about it. A rigorous study by investigators nobody has heard of is better evidence than a weak study led by a famous one. How these are scored.

Investigator standingUNKNOWN

We have no verifiable track record for the investigator named on this trial. That is common for early-career investigators and for records held outside ClinicalTrials.gov — it is not a negative signal.

How this score is built
  • Investigator standing0/100

    No investigator recorded in the registry for this trial

These describe the registry record only, and today we hold ClinicalTrials.gov data. Absent fields lower a score, and absence often reflects registration practice rather than study quality. A high-stature trial is not necessarily safer or a better choice for you — enrolling in a large definitive trial can mean a higher chance of receiving placebo, while a small early-phase study may be the only route to a new therapy.

Summary

Safety and performance evaluation of the CardioMech Mitral Valve Repair System (MVRS) in patients with degenerative mitral valve regurgitation.

The purpose of the clinical study is to obtain clinical data on the CardioMech Mitral Valve Repair System (MVRS) in patients diagnosed with moderate to severe (≥3+) or severe (≥4+), symptomatic, degenerative mitral regurgitation and who are determined to be at intermediate or high surgical risk for mitral valve repair, as assessed by the site's multidisciplinary heart team.

Eligibility as written in the registry

Inclusion Criteria: * Eighteen (18) years of age or greater * Moderate to severe (≥3+) or severe (≥4+) mitral valve regurgitation (per American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) guidelines) due to mitral valve prolapse or flail * Intermediate or high surgical risk for mitral valve repair Exclusion Criteria: * History of rheumatic heart disease * History of prior endocarditis * History of prior repair or replacement of the mitral valve, or annuloplasty * Severely calcified mitral leaflet or has evidence of calcification in the grasping area of the leaflets that would prevent leaflet anchor positioning and deployment * Complex mechanism of MR (leaflet perforation, severe leaflet calcifications, commissural extension, commissural prolapse, multiple flail or prolapsing segments, cleft) present on required imaging
