NCT03427333

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to confirm the efficacy and safety of the Talon Surgical Rook® Epicardial Access Kit as a pericardial access device. The Rook® Epicardial Access Kit will be used to gain access the epicardial surface of the heart via a subxiphoid approach in adult patients with a normal, non-distended pericardial space.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Patient in Whom Successful Pericardial Access was Achieved Through Use of the Rook Epicardial Access Kit

    Standard x-ray (fluoroscopy) will be used to confirm that the Talon Surgical Rook® Epicardial Access Kit facilitated successful placement of a guidewireinto the pericardial space. Successful placement of the guidewire into the pericardial space will be noted for each patient. The percentage of patients in whom pericardial access was successful will be reported.

    At time of intervention.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of Participants with Device or Procedure Related Adverse Events as Adjudicated by the Clinical Event Committee

    Up to 4 days post procedure.

  • Speed of Access

    At time of intervention

  • Ease of Use
