NCT05264753

Brief Summary

This retrospective and prospective, multicenter, international post marketing follow up study evaluates the safety and efficacy of the Occlutech® PDA Occluder, delivered using the Occlutech Occlusions Pusher (OOP), in subjects with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) defects. Safety and efficacy assessments include vital signs, electrocardiograms, and echocardiographic evaluations performed at baseline/implantation (including assessments within 36 hours post procedure), as well as at follow up visits occurring between Day 30 and Day 90, 6 months to 1 year, 1 to 2 years, and 2 to 3 years after implantation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Safety primary endpoint

    The primary safety endpoint is defined as the incidence of any Serious Adverse Device Effects (SADEs) including procedure-related death, procedure-related stroke, systemic embolism, severe hemolysis, device embolization, cardiac tamponade, infective endocarditis, or vascular complications requiring surgery up to 1-year post-implantation.

    1 year

  • Efficacy primary endpoint

    The primary efficacy endpoint is defined as successful implantation of the Occlutech® PDA Occluder with a complete closure of the PDA (defined as \>90% PDA closure represented by no or small residual flow) as assessed by echocardiography post-implantation) within 2-year post- implantation follow-up.

    2 years

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Safety secondary endpoint

    3 years

  • Efficacy secondary endpoint

    3 years

Interventions

Non-surgical occlusion of Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA).

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Full Analysis Set (safety): All patients intended to be treated with PDA Full Analysis Set (efficacy): All patients with implanted PDA

You may qualify if:

  • A subject of any age will be eligible for PDA closure if he or she meets the indication and area of application as laid down in the IFU. Including subjects more than 3 kg. Thus, the Occlutech PDA Occluder is intended for the non-surgical occlusion of Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) defects.
  • Male or female subjects.
  • Subjects or their parents/guardians understanding the nature of the study and providing their informed consent to participation.
  • Subjects willing and able to attend the follow-up visits and procedures foreseen by study CIP.

You may not qualify if:

  • Contraindications as laid down in the IFU:
  • Silent ductus or serious pulmonary hypertension:
  • Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR) \> 8 Wood Units
  • Presence of a known coagulation disorder
  • Thrombus at the position allocated for the implantation
  • A vein thrombosis in the blood vessels chosen for the introducing system
  • An active infection (active endocarditis or other infections causing bacteremia) or history of endocarditis within 3 months from the procedure.
  • Nitinol intolerance (nickel or titanium)
  • Contrast medium intolerance
  • Subjects who have a vascular system (which is used to access the defect) that is too small to admit the required sheath
