Repair of Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation: Comparison Between Flexible and Rigid Annuloplasty Rings (IMR2)

This study is currently recruiting participants.

Verified by Shaare Zedek Medical Center, June 2007

Sponsored by:	Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Information provided by:	Shaare Zedek Medical Center
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00491452

Purpose

Mitral valve repair for ischemic mitral regurgitation is performed primarily by annuloplasty. There is some degree of late failure, which may be due in part to the type of ring employed. We want to compare late results with mitral valve annuloplasty using flexible vs rigid annuloplasty rings.
