简要总结

The primary objective of the study is to determine whether the STARFlex® septal closure system will safely and effectively prevent a recurrent embolic stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA) and mortality in patients with a PFO and to demonstrate superiority of the STARFlex® device compared to best medical therapy.

  • Stroke or clinically definite TIA (contact study coordinator).
  • Be able to comply with follow up over two years.
  • Be competent to, or have a legal guardian competent to, provide informed consent following full disclosure of risks and benefits of both treatment arms by a study investigator.
  • Venous access capable of accepting a 10F minimum vascular sheath.
  • Have, or be willing to, discontinue hormonal based contraceptive use prior to enrollment and for the term of the study.
  • Has cardiac anatomy based on enrollment echocardiogram that will allow for placement of the implant if randomized to the implant arm.
  • Note: Additional inclusion criteria may apply. Contact study coordinator or principal investigator for details.
  • Post-randomization - device patients only
  • The size of the PFO (measured by indentation with a soft balloon) must be amenable to selection of a STARFlex device.

  • Anterior MI within 3 months of neurological event.
  • Chronic atrial fibrillation
  • Thrombus in, or occluded, venous access route.
  • Contraindication to heparin, aspirin, clopidogrel, or warfarin, or a known medical condition that requires continuous warfarin.
  • Patient enrolled in another investigation study where clinical endpoint interference may occur.
  • Permanent pacemaker or inferior vena cava (IVC) filter.
  • Serum creatinine > 2.0 mg/dL
