Brief Title
transShield Embolic Protection System Feasibility Study
Official Title
Prospective, Multi-center, Single-Arm Feasibility Study of the transShield Embolic Protection System
Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the transShield
Embolic Protection System (EPS) used for embolic protection during Transcatheter Aortic Valve
Replacement (TAVR).
Detailed Description
This is a prospective, multi-center, single arm feasibility study to assess the safety and
performance of the transShield EPS. Patients with severe native aortic valve stenosis
scheduled for TAVR will be screened for study eligibility. Subjects who meet the commercially
approved indications for TAVR and comply with the study inclusion/exclusion criteria are
eligible for enrollment. Patients will be followed for 30 days post procedure.
Study Type
Interventional
Primary Outcome
Safety - Incidence of 30-Day combined rate of the following events directly related to the transShield EPS as defined by VARC-2
Secondary Outcome
Safety - Incidence of minor vascular complications directly related to the transShield EPS as defined by VARC-2.
Condition
Aortic Stenosis
Intervention
transShield Embolic Protection System
Study Arms / Comparison Groups
