Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and document appropriate clinical safety and performance of the Remon CHF Implantable Pressure Sensor including the corresponding delivery system, the Remon CHF Home Unit, the Remon CHF Clinic System devices and associated application software. It is a small clinical trial to determine the feasibility of the device. The primary outcome measure relates to feasibility and not to health outcomes.
Detailed Description
This study was a prospective feasibility, non-randomised, singlearm, multi-centre, interventional clinical investigation performed at 4 international sites. Patients were implanted with the Remon CHF Implantable Pressure Sensor utilizing the corresponding delivering system. Measurements were taken with the Remon CHF Home Unit and the Remon CHF Clinic System. Follow-up visits took place at one, three and six months after implant. Per protocol, a minimum of 30 patients was required to demonstrate safety of the device. The study was conducted in accordance with ISO 14155:2003 (parts I and II), the Declaration of Helsinki and all applicable local and national regulations in the countries of submission.
