Overview
Brief Summary
Patients with heart failure and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF, EF ≥ 50%) or mid-range left ventricular ejection fraction (HFmrEF, 40% < EF < 50%) with mild to moderate functional limitation will be evaluated for treatment via creation of a no-implant interatrial shunt using clinical, echocardiographic, and invasive hemodynamic data
