Gedetailleerde beschrijving

This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, parallel-controlled, superiority, multicenter clinical study. A total of 208 subjects will be randomized 1:1 after meeting all inclusion/exclusion criteria.

Treatment Group: atrial shunt implantation post-right heart catheterization. Control Group: Right heart catheterization only. Both groups will receive standardized Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT) post-procedure. Assessments and follow-ups will be conducted at pre-procedure baseline, day of procedure, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-procedure.

A Clinical Event Committee (CEC), composed of third-party cardiovascular experts, will independently review and adjudicate primary endpoints in a blinded manner (surgical information concealed).

Interventie / Behandeling
Experimenteel: Device group (Interventional group)
Patients will receive atrial shunt for heart failure treatment plus maximally tolerated guideline-directed medical therapy for cardiovascular disease
Apparaat: D-shant Atrial Shunt
The D-Shant atrial shunt device is a novel device therapy for heart failure, classified as a non-active implantable cardiovascular device. It is manufactured using a braided Nitinol technique, thermally set via assembly molds to form a waist with a fixed-orifice support and a hollow double-disc structure. Braided wires reinforce waist support and maintain a circular orifice shape. Once implanted, it forms a stable interatrial shunt. The device is delivered via the femoral vein to the interatrial septum, where the shunt orifice facilitates blood flow diversion and pressure decompression. Various models with different waist and disc diameters are available to accommodate varying degrees and etiologies of heart failure.

A composite event of all-cause mortality, heart transplantation or left ventricular assist device implantation due to heart failure, heart failure-related rehospitalization post-procedure and Unplanned outpatient worsening heart failure within 12 months
Tijdsspanne: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 months
A composite event of all-cause mortality, heart transplantation or left ventricular assist device implantation due to heart failure, heart failure-related rehospitalization post-procedure and Unplanned outpatient worsening heart failure within 12 months. Hospitalization for heart failure requires an admission to an in-patient unit or an emergency room stay for ≥24 hours (or <24 hours if subject dies in the emergency room). - Outpatient worsening heart failure requires an unplanned visit to a doctor's office, urgent care center or emergency room visit with stay <24 hours. - Worsening heart failure must be present for both conditions, the definition of which requires all three of the following to be present: 1. Deterioration of HF symptoms: at least 1 of the following symptoms 2. Deterioration of HF signs: 2 physical examination findings or 1 physical examination + 1 laboratory or invasive finding 3. Urgent escalation of therapy
