Study of the Native Outflow Tract Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve (TPV)

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Congenital Heart Disease
Tetralogy of Fallot
Interventions
Device: Native Outflow Tract TPV
Registration Number
NCT01762124
Lead Sponsor
Medtronic Heart Valves
Brief Summary

The purpose of this early feasibility study is to determine how a new transcatheter pulmonary valve will move and perform once implanted in the right ventricular outflow tract.

Detailed Description

Medtronic, Inc. is in the process of developing a novel transcatheter device option for patients with congenital heart disease, without right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery conduits, called the Native Outflow Tract Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve. Given limitations in the animal model to confirm device boundary conditions, this feasibility study is proposed to characterize that information as well as evaluate safety, procedural feasibility and performance data to be used for future development of the device.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Measurement of radial, linear and axial compression, bending and torsion of device4 Days Post-Implant

The following variables will be measured: radial compression, linear compression, axial compression, device bending and device torsion using the discharge CT. The degree of deformation of the device will be reported.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pulmonary Regurgitation Severity as Measured by EchocardiographyThrough 5 years

The pulmonary regurgitation severity for all patients, as measured by echocardiography, will be reported.

Mean RVOT Gradient (mmHg) as Measured by Color Wave DopplerThrough 5 years

The mean RVOT gradient for all patients, as measured by Color Wave Doppler, will be reported.

Right Ventricular Volume (ml) as Measured by Cardiac MRIThrough 5 years

The right ventricular volumes for all patients, as measured by cardiac MRI, will be reported.

Number of Patients with Procedural Success24 hours post-implant

The number of patients who are successfully implanted with the device will be reported. This is measured by meeting all of the following criteria: Confirmation that the device is fixated within the desired location, RV-PA peak-to-peak gradient is less than 25 mmHg, Pulmonary regurgitation is moderate or less, and the subject is free of explantation at 24 hours post-implant.

Number of Patients with Serious Procedural Adverse EventsThrough 5 year follow-up

The number of patients that experience a serious procedural adverse event, as defined per the study protocol, will be reported.

Number of Patients with Device-related Adverse EventsThrough 5 years

The number of patients that experience a device-related adverse event, as defined per the study protocol, will be reported.

Number of Patients with Stent FractureThrough 5 years

The number of patients that experience a stent fracture of their device will be reported.

Number of Patients with Catheter Re-intervention on the TPVThrough 5 years

The number of patients that experience a catheter re-intervention will be reported.

Assessment of Surgical Intervention on the TPVThrough 5 years

The number of patients that undergo a surgical intervention will be reported.

Number of Patient Deaths (all-cause, procedural, and device-related)Through 5 years

Any patient deaths that occur during the study will be reported.

Pulmonary Regurgitant Fraction (%) as measured by cardiac MRIThrough 5 years

The pulmonary regurgitant fraction for all patients, as measured by cardiac MRI, will be reported.
