Reduction or Elimination of Mitral Regurgitation With the SATURN Trans-septal TMVR System in Patients With Severe, Symptomatic Mitral Regurgitation (Cassini-US)
InnovHeart
Summary
CASSINI-US is a prospective, single-arm, multicenter early feasibility study enrolling up to 15 patients at up to 5 sites in the United States (US). The purpose of the study is to evaluate the technical (implant) feasibility, and safety, and performance of the SATURN TS TMVR System for the treatment of moderate-severe or severe, symptomatic mitral regurgitation through a transcatheter approach. Primary objectives evaluate the implant feasibility, and acute safety and performance of the SATURN TS TMVR System. The secondary objective and additional outcome measures characterize the long-term safety and performance of the SATURN TS TMVR System.
Description
The SATURN Bioprosthesis is designed to be implanted in the native mitral heart valve without open-heart surgery, extracorporeal circulation, cardiac arrest or removal of the failed native valve. The SATURN Bioprosthesis consists of the annular structure (Annular Segments) and the valve (SATURN Valve). The valve supports a set of prosthetic leaflets that are the functional elements of the bioprosthesis. The valve is made of a self-expandable Nitinol frame supports three bovine pericardium leaflets. The valve is assembled with the annular structure through two connecting blocks mounted on the…
