How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Non-Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: ImCardia
Aortic Stenosis patients candidates for Aortic Valve Replacement (AVR) implanted with the ImCardia device
Device: ImCardia Device
The device operates by harnessing energy expended by the left ventricle (LV) during Systole and returning it to the heart during Diastole thereby making it available to augment diastolic performance
Other Names:
  • IMC 01
No Intervention: AVR control group
Aortic stenosis patients candidates for aortic valve replacement

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Safety: Adverse event reporting
Time Frame: 36 month

Adverse event reporting will continue up to 36 month follow up. Any complication attributed to the device will be recorded.

Any Major Adverse Cardiac Event (MACE) will be evaluated in a safety committee composed from company representative and a cardiosurgeon which is not part of the company
36 month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Functionality - Successful Device implantation
Time Frame: Immediately post implantation day
The surgeon will score device implantation procedure post operation.
Immediately post implantation day
