Brief summary

The EASE Enable study is intended to collect additional data on the clinical outcomes of the Medtronic Enable® Aortic Bioprosthesis in real world patients.

Detailed description

The EASE Enable study is intended to characterize the clinical performance of the Medtronic Enable® aortic bioprosthesis in a post-market real-world setting. This is a Non-randomized, prospective, non-interventional multi-center post-market release (PMR) study. Up to 800 subjects will be enrolled at up to 40 centers in Europe. After aortic valve replacement with the Enable® aortic bioprosthesis, each patient will have routine follow-up visits at the following intervals: at 30 days post-implant (at 30 days post-implant or prior to hospital discharge, whatever comes first), within 6 months following implantation, 1 year and annually thereafter up to 5 years post-implant.

Interventions

Aortic Valve Replacement surgery of the native aortic valve with the Enable® aortic bioprosthesis.

Inclusion criteria

* Patient with aortic valve stenosis, aortic valve insufficiency or a combination of the two. * Patient requires replacement of his/her native aortic valve with a bioprosthesis with or without concomitant procedures. * Patient is above the minimum age as required by local regulations to be participating in a clinical study. * Patient is willing to return to the implant site for follow-up visits. * Patient has been adequately informed of this clinical study and is willing to sign the patient Data Release Form.

Exclusion criteria

* Patient requires replacement of two or more valves. * Patient who underwent previous aortic valve replacement (AVR). * Patient with native bicuspid aortic valve. * Patient with active endocarditis or other systemic infection. * Patient dilatation of the ascending aorta, deformations or irregular aortic annulus or ascending aorta geometry as seen via preoperative imaging.
