Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: - Patients in whom the indication for one of the cardiosurgical therapies was made due to a symptomatic heart disease in the indications mentioned under groups 1-5: - Age >= 18 years - Patients able to consent and cooperate - Written consent to study participation Group 1 Patients with high-grade aortic valve stenosis who receive surgical aortic valve replacement group 2 Patients with severe mitral valve regurgitation who receive surgical mitral valve reconstruction/replacement group 3 Patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation who receive surgical tricuspid valve reconstruction/replacement group 4 Patients with CHD who receive ACVB surgery and do not have defects > grade 2 4A) with ejection fraction =50% (control group) 4B) with ejection fraction <40% group 5 Patients receiving LVAD implantation In this group, due to the limited use of the method, it is unlikely that a high number of cases will be reached, so this group will be recruited in an exploratory approach until the other groups have been completed. A maximum number of N=20 is provided.
