Study Population

Patients with symptomatic heart failure, NYHA class II/III with LVEF≤40%

You may qualify if:

  • Willing and capable of providing informed consent according to national data privacy regulations
  • Patients with NYHA class II/III
  • LVEF≤40% by imaging method such as echocardiography, radionuclide angiography, left ventriculography, or cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, documented less than 12 weeks before implantation of VITARIA system
  • Receiving optimal pharmacological heart failure therapy for at least 3 months
  • Recent implantation of the VITARIA system, prior to device activation

You may not qualify if:

  • Hospitalization for heart failure and/or required the use of Heart Failure intravenous therapy in the past 30 days
  • Severe mitral and/or any aortic valve dysfunction
  • History of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in the past 90 days
  • Stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) in the past 90 days
  • Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG) in the past 90 days
  • PCI in the past 90 days
  • Surgery for Valve replacement (Aortic or mitral valve) in the past 90 days
  • Left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) \> 80 mm
  • Patients who have had a cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) device implanted and have been actively treated with CRT for \< 12 months
  • Patients that are scheduled for CRT
  • Patients who are listed for heart transplant or expected to be candidates for heart transplant
  • Patients on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis
  • Patients with diabetes (type I or type II) that is being medically treated for autonomic or sensory neuropathy, or measured hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) above 8.0% in the past 3 months
