Prospective, randomized, open-label, international, multi-center clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the AccuCinch Ventricular Restoration System in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
Inclusion Criteria
Diagnosis and treatment for heart failure should be established at least 90 days before the date of consent. Subjects should be on stable, optimally titrated medical therapy for at least 30 days, as recommended according to current guidelines as standard-of-care for Heart Failure therapy, with any intolerance documented. 1. "Stable" is defined as no more than a 100% increase or a 50% decrease of total daily doses. Medication changes within this range do not require any additional waiting before the screening assessments
When a total daily dose increase or decrease exceeds that which is considered stable, the screening TTE and CT will be postponed 30 days after the medication change
Exclusion Criteria
Myocardial infarction or any percutaneous cardiovascular intervention, cardiovascular surgery, or carotid surgery within 90 days prior to consent
Untreated clinically significant coronary artery disease (CAD) requiring revascularization
Fluoroscopic or echocardiographic evidence of severe aortic arch calcification, mobile aortic atheroma, intracardiac mass, thrombus or vegetation
Suboptimal ventricular anatomy or wall thickness as determined from screening echocardiography and/or CT scan
