Summary

This is a trial to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Freedom SOLO heart valve when used to replace a diseased or dysfunctional aortic valve or aortic valve prosthesis.

Clinical Details

Official title: Clinical Investigation of the Freedom SOLO Stentless Heart Valve

Study design: Allocation: Non-Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Primary outcome: The complication and survival rates for the Freedom SOLO stentless valve.

Secondary outcome: Hemodynamic performance of the Freedom SOLO stentless valve. Clinically significant improvement in overall patient condition.

Eligibility

Minimum age: 18 Years. Maximum age: N/A. Gender(s): Both.

Criteria:

Inclusion Criteria:

- The patient is male or female 18 years old or older.

- The patient is willing to sign the informed consent.

- The patient which preoperative evaluation indicated the need for native or prosthetic

aortic valve replacement.

- Any patient amenable to aortic valve replacement with biological prosthesis should be

enrolled in the study, even in conjunction with valve repair, coronary artery bypass grafting and other procedures.

- The patient is located in a geographic location that will enable the subject to

return to the study site for all follow-up examinations (i. e. geographically stable).

- Patient will be available to the investigator(s) for postoperative follow-up beyond

one year.

Exclusion Criteria:

- The patient has preexisting valve prosthesis in the mitral, pulmonary or tricuspid

position.

- The patient requires a double or triple valve replacement (a valve repair is not

considered an exclusion criterion).

- The patient has a previously implanted SOLO valve, within the clinical study, that

requires replacement.

- The patient has active endocarditis.

- The patient is or will be participating in a concomitant research study of an

investigational product.

- The patient is a minor, intravenous drug user, alcohol abuser, prisoner,

institutionalized, or is unable to give informed consent.

- The patient has a major or progressive non-cardiac disease that, in the

investigator's experience, results in a life expectancy of less than 1 year, or the implant of the device produces an unacceptable increased risk to the patient.

- The patient is pregnant or lactating.

- Patients with congenital bicuspid aortic valve.

- Patients are known to be noncompliant or are unlikely to complete the study.
