Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| -Primary Safety Endpoints Incidence of device and/or procedure related Major Adverse Events (MAEs) within 30 days of the final index procedure. MAEs are defined as: * Death * Major and minor strokes * Major bleeding * Common carotid artery (CCA) stenosis > 70% * S-3 Implant migration * CCA thrombus * Any complications in the CCA requiring endovascular treatment or surgery -Primary Feasibility Endpoints Procedure success, defined as: * Proper S-3 Implant position in each CCA within 30 days of the final index procedure | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| -Secondary Safety Endpoints - Incidence of device and/or procedure related MAEs within 3, 6, and 12 months of the final index procedure. -Secondary Feasibility Endpoints • Successful delivery and deployment of the Implant in the CCA, defined as proper Implant position within 4 hours of implantation procedure at each CCA • Proper Implant position in each CCA within 3, 6, and 12 months of the final index procedure -Secondary Tolerability Endpoints - Patient*s comfort at Post-procedure visit (Up to 4 hours post implantation), at discharge, and at each follow-up visit | — |
