Brief summary
This is a prospective, interventional, multi-center trial to report the overall incidence of reduced leaflet motion identified by CT imaging in patients receiving a commercially approved LivaNova bioprosthetic aortic heart valve up to 1 year post implant.
Detailed description
This is a prospective, interventional, multi-center trial to report the overall incidence of reduced leaflet motion identified by CT imaging in patients receiving a commercially approved LivaNova bioprosthetic aortic heart valve up to 1 year post implant, on patients that are off anticoagulation for at least 30 days. A minimum of 75 subjects with evaluable 4D CT scans will be enrolled at approximately 11 investigational sites where the devices are commercially available. For asymptomatic subjects, PIs and subjects will be blinded from the CT imaging results and from the Core Lab findings.
Interventions
4D CT scan obtained at minimum of 1 month after the discontinuation of the anticoagulation or dual antiplatelet therapy
Study includes patients that have received the commercially approved LivaNova bioprosthetic aortic heart valve Perceval, as standard of care.
