Pulmonary Artery DenerVation Clinical Study Using the Gradient Denervation System in Heart Failure Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension Group 2 (PreVail-PH2 OUS Study) (PreVailPH2 OUS)
July 30, 2025 updated by: Gradient Denervation Technologies
Characterize the impact of pulmonary artery denervation on the quality of life in Heart Failure Patients with Group 2 Pulmonary Hypertension

Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
The Gradient Denervation System delivers ultrasound ablation to planned locations in the pulmonary artery to down-regulate the sympathetic nervous drive.
The system includes a sterile, single-use catheter that is designed to centrally position the transducer within the arterial target zone for consistency of ablation.
