Research

Mayo Clinic researchers continue to study aortic valve disease, aortic valve repair and aortic valve replacement as part of cardiovascular research efforts. Learn more about research in the Cardiovascular Research Center.

Topics of research have included:

  • The use of new blood-thinning medicines for people with mechanical valve replacements.
  • How genetics plays a role in aortic valve disease.
  • Outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in people with and without amyloidosis.

As a patient at Mayo Clinic, you may have access to heart-related clinical trials as a part of your treatment.
