CARDIO: Electrophysiology - The Arm Aflutter Study
Dr. Aneesh Tolat is the Principal Investigator for this trial evaluating the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of performing typical atrial flutter ablation through the arm.
CARDIO: Structural - APOLLO
Dr. Talhat Azemi in conjunction with the Structural Heart Team are participating in this international trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of the Medtronic Intrepid TMVR system in patients with moderate to severe or severe symptomatic mitral regurgitation who are unable to have standard transcatheter or surgical repair.
CARDIO: Structural - RESTORE
RESTORE is a multi-center, non-randomized trial designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the HARPOON Beating Heart Mitral Valve Repair System in patients with severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR).
CARDIO: Structural - CORCINCH-HF
This study is a randomized trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the AccuCinch Ventricular Restoration System and compare it to standardized heart failure medication.
CARDIO: Vascular - SSB 11-02
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether the GORE® TAG® Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis (TBE device) is safe and effective in treating thoracic aortic pathologies.
CARDIO: Vascular - CREST-2
Dr. Parth Shah and the Vascular Surgery Team will be participating in this two-parallel multi-centered, randomized, observer-blinded endpoint clinical trial. One trial will assess treatment differences between intensive medical management alone compared to carotid endarterectomy with intensive medical management. The parallel trial will assess treatment differences between intensive medical management alone compared to carotid artery stenting plus intensive medical management.
CARDIO: Vascular - CREST-H
Dr. Shah in conjunction with the Vascular Surgical team will participate in this trial to determine whether patients with cerebral hemodynamic impairment and mild cognitive impairment benefit from carotid revascularization.
CARDIO: Cardiac Surgery - ON-X Post Approval Clinical Registry Study
Dr. Robert Hagberg and the Cardiac Surgical Team will evaluate the On-X aortic valve performance in normal general open practice using a new lower anticoagulant (blood thinner) dose approved and recommended by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2015.
CARDIO: Cardiac Surgery - PERIGON
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Medtronic Model 400 aortic valve bioprosthesis in a patient undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement of a native aortic valve, or replacement of a failed prosthesis.
CARDIO: Cardiac Surgery - Terminate AF Study
The purpose of the clinical study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Cardioblate iRF and CryoFlex hand held devices to expand the Indication for use to include the treatment of persistent atrial fibrillation and long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (non-paroxysmal AF) in subjects undergoing concomitant cardiac surgery.

CARDIO: TAVR - PROTECTED TAVR
This study hopes to demonstrate that use of the Sentinel Cerebral Protection System significantly reduces the risk of peri-procedural stroke <72 hours after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
CARDIO: Cardiac Catheterization - STEMI DTU
This trial hopes to demonstrate that left ventricular unloading with Impella and a 30 minute delay to reperfusion when compared with immediate PCI will show a reduction in infarct size and heart failure related clinical events.
CARDIO: Cardiac Catheterization - Assessment of Individual Risk of Cardiovascular Events by Platelet FcGammaRIIa
People who have had a heart attack can have another heart attack and stroke in the future. The test being researched is a blood test that is designed to guide personalized treatment designed to prevent those events.
