Long-term follow-up after Melody heart valve placement

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This registry extension collects long-term clinical follow-up data on patients with congenital heart disease who previously received a Melody transcatheter pulmonary valve as part of the original MELODY Registry. It is purely observational with no new interventions; investigators will record outcomes such as valve durability, reinterventions, complications, and survival from routine care and follow-up visits. Enrollment is limited to participants from the original registry and data are captured at University Hospital Tübingen or via arranged remote reporting. The project aims to describe real-world long-term device performance after commercialization in Europe and other outside-US markets.
