Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) Due to Left Heart Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and initial effectiveness of the TIVUS™ System when used for pulmonary artery denervation in group II PH patients through change in clinical parameters including hemodynamics, exercise tolerance, and quality of life. This is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, open-label clinical trail. The study will be conducted in up to 3 centers and will recruit up to 15 patients diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension due to left heart disease that demonstrate combined pre and post capillary involvement with PVR\>3 wood units.
Interventions
Pulmonary Denervation (PDN) using the TIVUS™ System will be performed in patient suffering from pulmonary hypertension after completion of screening and eligibility phase, The procedure will be performed during right heart catheterisation. Safety and effectiveness of the PDN treatment will be assessed during one year follow up.
