NCT01187368
Brief Summary:
This is a prospective, multi-center, unblinded, randomized, controlled, and non-inferiority study comparing the EVA2 LVAS to the most recent magnetically levitated centrifugal LVAS (HM3 LVAS).
Detailed Description:
Adult (\>18 years old), advanced heart failure NYHA Class III with dyspnea upon mild physical activity or Class IV patients who are refractory to advanced heart failure management and meet study Inclusion/Exclusion criteria will be enrolled.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the EVA2 by demonstrating non-inferiority to commercially approved LVADs when used for the treatment of refractory advanced heart failure.
Subjects will be followed for 6 months (short-term cohort) and 24 months (long-term cohort) after EVA2/HM3 LVAS implantation or until outcome events of transplantation, explantation, death or withdrawal, whichever occurs first. Whereas subjects experiencing the outcome events of "Severe RHF" and "Disabling stroke" will remain in study follow-up.
