Study Stopped
Due to Medtronic's decisions to stop sales and distribution of the HVAD System and subsequent stop of study enrollments, limited data will be available. Therefore it is not expected to provide new insights.

Brief Summary
Medtronic is sponsoring the Apogee International registry to further confirm safety and efficacy of the HVAD™ System when used as intended, in "real world" clinical practice and to enhance scientific understanding of the implant procedure, optimized blood pressure management, anticoagulation/ antiplatelet therapies, logfile analysis and acoustic spectrum analysis in patients receiving a Medtronic HeartWare™ HVAD™ for bridge to transplant and destination therapy indications.

Implant to 12 months
Study Arms (1)
Patients implanted with HVAD System
Patients intended to be implanted with a HeartWare HVAD per the current (local) guidelines, are eligible for enrollment into Apogee International and must be consented for Apogee International prior to the HVAD implant.
Interventions
The HVAD is an implantable centrifugal rotary blood pump that is implanted in the pericardial space and is designed to provide up to 10 L/min of blood flow from the left ventricular to the aorta. The HVAD System is comprised of three major components: the HVAD (pump) with inflow and outflow conduits, a Controller (microprocessor unit that controls the operation of the HVAD), and power sources (AC and DC power adapters that provide power to the Controller and implanted HVAD).
Eligibility Criteria
Patients intended to be implanted with a HeartWare HVAD per the current (local) guidelines, are eligible for enrollment into Apogee International and must be consented for Apogee International prior to the HVAD implant.
You may qualify if:
- Patient or legally authorized representative provides written authorization and/or consent per institution and geographical requirements;
- Enrollment into Apogee International will be comprised of newly enrolled, commercial use patients with the HeartWare HVAD System;
- Patient is consented prior to the HVAD implant procedure.
You may not qualify if:
- Patient who is, or is expected to be inaccessible for follow-up;
- Participation is excluded by local law;
- Patient is currently enrolled or plans to enroll in concurrent drug/device study that may confound the PSR results.
