Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patient is older than 18 years of age
  • Symptomatic CAD with chronic refractory angina pectoris classified as Canadian Cardiovascular Society grade III or IV despite attempted optimal medical therapy for thirty days prior to screening
  • Patient has limited treatment options for revascularization by coronary artery bypass grafting or by percutaneous coronary intervention
  • Evidence of reversible ischemia that is attributable to the left coronary arterial system by Dobutamine Echo
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction greater than 25%
  • Male or non-pregnant female (NB: Females of child bearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test)
  • Patient understands the nature of the procedure and provides written informed consent prior to enrollment
  • Patient is willing to comply with specified follow-up evaluation and can be contacted by telephone

Exclusion Criteria

  • Recent (within three months) acute coronary syndrome
  • Recent (within six months) successful PCI or CABG
  • Unstable angina (recent onset angina, crescendo angina, or rest angina with ECG changes) during the thirty days prior to screening
  • De-compensated congestive heart failure (CHF) or hospitalization due to CHF during the three months prior to screening
  • Life threatening rhythm disorders or any rhythm disorders that would require placement of an internal defibrillator and or pacemaker
  • Severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as indicated by a forced expiratory volume in one second that is less than 55% of the predicted value
  • Patient cannot undergo exercise tolerance test (bicycle) for reasons other than refractory angina
  • Severe valvular heart disease
  • Patient with pacemaker or defibrillator electrode in the right atrium, right ventricle, or coronary sinus
  • Patient having undergone tricuspid valve replacement or repair
