Severe Symptomatic Aortic Valve Stenosis
Brief summary
Feasibility Trial on the ACURATE TA™ transapical implantation in patients presenting severe symptomatic aortic stenosis to collect human feasibility data pertaining to the safety and performance of the device.
Detailed description
A single arm, prospective, multicenter, open trial up to 5 year follow-up with the SYMETIS ACURATE TA™ which is an aortic bioprosthesis for minimal invasive implantation via transapical access to treat patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis where conventional aortic valve replacement (AVR) via open heart surgery is considered to be associated with high surgical risk for evaluating the feasibility and performance of the implantation and the safety at 30-Day follow-up.
Interventions
DEVICEACURATE TA™
ACURATE TA™ Transapical Aortic Bioprosthesis is intended for subjects with severe symptomatic Aortic Stenosis and are considered high risk for surgical conventional Aortic Valve Replacement surgery.
