Who may be able to join
AI generated eligibility summary. Written by an AI model from the official source data and checked on a sample basis. It can contain mistakes, so confirm anything important against the original source. How we use AI
Who might be able to join this trial:
- People over 18 years of age who have severe narrowing of the heart's aortic valve (aortic stenosis) and have had a procedure called TAVI (a non-surgical way to replace the aortic valve)
- People who developed a new or worsened electrical conduction problem in their heart, detected on a heart tracing (ECG) taken immediately after the TAVI procedure — specifically, one of the following: a new left bundle branch block, a new or worsened first degree AV block, a new right bundle branch block, or a temporary higher-grade AV block that resolved on its own within 24 hours (confirm with trial site if unsure which applies)
- People who have already had a small heart monitor (called an insertable loop recorder, or ILR) placed under the skin to track these heart rhythm changes over time
Who may not be able to join:
- People who developed a serious heart rhythm block after TAVI that required an urgent pacemaker to be fitted
- People who already have an existing implanted heart device (such as a pacemaker or defibrillator)
- People who have a medical condition that means a small device inserted under the skin long-term would not be safe or appropriate for them
- People who are currently pregnant, confirmed by a urine pregnancy test (this test is done for all women who could potentially be pregnant)
- People who are not willing to sign the consent form, do not have the ability to give consent, or who withdraw their consent after signing
