Assessing the Safety and Efficacy of the LAmbre™ Plus Device

Korábbi kezelés

• Pregnant or nursing patients and those who plan pregnancy in the period up to 1 year following index procedure. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test done within 7 days prior to index procedure per site standard test.
• Anatomic conditions that would prevent performance of the LAA occlusion procedure (e.g., prior atrial septal defect [ASD] or patient foramen ovale [PFO] surgical repair or implanted closure device, or obliterated left atrial appendage)
• Known asymptomatic carotid artery disease with>70% diameter stenosis OR symptomatic carotid disease (>50% diameter stenosis with ipsilateral stroke or TIA). Subjects with prior carotid endarterectomy or carotid stent placement may be enrolled, provided that known diameter stenosis is <50%.
• Current participation in another investigational drug or device study Echocardiographic Exclusion Criteria
• Intracardiac thrombus or dense spontaneous echo contrast, as visualized by TEE within 2 days prior to implant

Más betegség

• Patients who require long-term anticoagulation for a condition other than atrial fibrillation
• Patients not suitable for short term warfarin (including due to bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy or absolute contraindication warfarin) or who will refuse transfusion
• Patients with rheumatic mitral valve disease, known severe aortic stenosis requiring surgical or percutaneous valve replacement, or existing mechanical valve prosthesis
• Active infection with bacteremia
• Known hypersensitivity or contraindication to aspirin, clopidogrel, heparin/bivalirudin, any device material or component (nitinol, nickel, titanium, PET), and/or contrast sensitivity that cannot be adequately pre-medicated
• Recent (within 30 days pre-procedure) or planned (within 60 days post- procedure) cardiac or non-cardiac interventional or surgical procedure (e.g., cardioversion, ablation, percutaneous coronary intervention, cataract surgery, etc.)
• Recent (within 90 days pre-procedure) stroke, transient ischemic attack, or myocardial infarction
• Severe heart failure (New York Heart Association Class IV)
• Past or pending heart or any other organ transplant, or on the waiting list for any organ transplant
• Known other medical illness or known history of substance abuse that may cause non-compliance with the protocol, confound data interpretation, or is associated with a life expectancy of less than 2 years
• Evidence of a Cardiac Tumor

Laborértékek

• Patients with an indication for chronic P2Y12 platelet inhibition therapy
• LVEF <30%

Egyéb

• Patients with atrial fibrillation that is defined by a single occurrence, or that is transient or reversible (e.g., secondary to CABG, an interventional procedure, pneumonia, or hyperthyroidism)
• Left atrial appendage anatomy cannot accommodate either the LAmbre Plus LAAO device or the Control device per manufacturer IFU (e.g., the anatomy and sizing must be for both device to be enrolled in the trial or maximum LAAO length < maximum ostium width by TEE)
• Moderate or large circumferential pericardial effusion >10 mm or symptomatic pericardial effusion, signs or symptoms of acute or chronic pericarditis, or evidence of tamponade physiology. In the event of a treatable pericardial effusion, the subject may undergo implantation at a later time after it is adequately treated.
• Atrial septal defect that warrants closure.
• Presence of a high risk patent foramen ovale (PFO), defined as an atrial septal aneurysm (excursion >15 mm or length >15 mm) or large shunt (early, within 3 beats and/or substantial passage of bubbles)
• Moderate or severe mitral valve stenosis (mitral valve area <1.5 cm2)
• Complex atheroma with mobile plaque of the descending aorta and/or aortic arch (Grade 4 or higher)

• The patient is a male or non-pregnant female ≥18 years of age
• The patient has documented paroxysmal, persistent, or permanent non- valvular atrial fibrillation
• The patient has a CHADS2 score ≥ 2 or a CHA2DS2-VASc score of ≥ 3, and is recommended for oral anticoagulation therapy
• The patient is deemed by their physician to be suitable for short-term warfarin therapy, but there is an appropriate rationale for seeking a non-pharmacologic alternative to oral anticoagulation
• The patient is deemed suitable for LAA closure by a multidisciplinary heart team, including at least 1 investigator (e.g. cardiologists) and 1 clinician not involved as part of the procedure team using a shared decision making process, and this determination has been documented in the patient's medical record
• The patient is willing and able to comply with protocol-specified treatment and follow-up evaluations
• The patient (or his or her legally authorized representative) has been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to its provisions, and has been provided written informed consent approved by the appropriate Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Ethics Committee (EC)
