Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Successful placement of the Zenflow Spring Implant
Number of successful deployments and procedural successes for the Zenflow System to implant the Spring device in the OR, or in an out-patient clinical setting as compared to total treatment attempts.
Day of discharge up to 7 days following device placement
Effectiveness of the Spring Implant in reducing symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) using the International Prostate Symptom Score
At 3 months, achieve at least 30% mean improvement in International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) compared to baseline. The patient is asked to respond to 7 questions related to his urinary health using a rating scale of 0 to 5 where zero is excellent and 5 is the worst possible. The responses to the 7 questions are tallied for a total IPSS score.
3 month
Need for urinary catheterization
Achieve \< 12% rate of extended post-operative urinary catheterization, defined as an occurrence of a subject requiring catheterization within the first 3 days as part of a postoperative management for inability to void, for greater than 7 days.
7 days after the procedure
Incidence of procedure or device related serious adverse events
Achieve \< 12% rate of device or procedure related SAEs through discharge and 30 days follow up.
30 days after the procedure
Secondary Outcomes (9)
Assessment of Sexual Health Assessment: Change in sexual health measured by change in the Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM) questionnaire score
Baseline, 3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, & 60 months
Assessment of Pain, evaluated using a Visual Analog Score (VAS) of 1 to 10
Baseline, interoperative (if conscious sedation used), immediately post-treatment, 2 weeks, 1 and 3 months
Assessment of Adverse Events
Up to 5 years
Assessment of Clavien-Dindo events
Up to 5 years
Assessment of PSA
Up to 5 years
- +4 more secondary outcomes

Interventions
The Zenflow Spring is a nitinol urethral implant for the treatment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) that arise due to bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), secondary to the presence of Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH). The device is intended to be a permanent implant however it may be removed if necessary.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patient is able and willing to comply with all the assessments of the study
- Patient or patient's legal representative has been informed of the nature of the study, agrees to participate and has signed the informed consent form
- ≥ 45 years of age
- Baseline IPSS score \> 13
- Prostate volume 25 - 80 cc and prostatic urethral length between 2.5-4.5 cm measured within the past 90 days
- Failed, intolerant, or patient choice to not take a medication regimen for the treatment of LUTS
You may not qualify if:
- Obstructive intravesical median prostatic lobe which in the opinion of the operator would not benefit from treatment
- Urethral stricture, meatal stenosis, or bladder neck obstruction - either current, or recurrent requiring 2 or more dilations as reported in the patient's history
- Requiring self-catheterization to void.
- Baseline PSA \> 10 ng/mL or confirmed or suspected prostate cancer
- Any of the following, taken from a single uroflowmetry reading:
- Post-void residual volume (PVR) \> 250 ml
- Peak urinary flow rate of \> 15 ml/second
- \< 125 ml urinary volume voided at baseline (pre-bladder urinary volume of ≥150 ml required)
- Other condition or disease that might cause urinary retention
- History of other diseases causing voiding dysfunction
- Concomitant Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) (subject can be enrolled following successful treatment of UTI and a clean urine test), or subjects who have a history of recurrent or chronic UTIs (defined as 2 or more UTIs in the past 12 months)
- Concomitant bladder stones
- Previous pelvic irradiation or radical pelvic surgery
- Previous prostate surgery, stent implantations, laser prostatectomy, hyperthermia or another invasive treatment to the prostate
- Chronic prostatitis, or recurring prostatitis within the past 12 months
- +16 more criteria
