Study Description

Brief Summary:

The purpose of this early feasibility study is to determine how a new transcatheter pulmonary valve will move and perform once implanted in the right ventricular outflow tract.

Condition or disease	Intervention/treatment	Phase
Congenital Heart Disease; Tetralogy of Fallot	Device: Native Outflow Tract TPV	Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

Medtronic, Inc. is in the process of developing a novel transcatheter device option for patients with congenital heart disease, without right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery conduits, called the Native Outflow Tract Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve. Given limitations in the animal model to confirm device boundary conditions, this feasibility study is proposed to characterize that information as well as evaluate safety, procedural feasibility and performance data to be used for future development of the device.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :

1. Measurement of radial, linear and axial compression, bending and torsion of device [ Time Frame: 4 Days Post-Implant ]
   The following variables will be measured: radial compression, linear compression, axial compression, device bending and device torsion using the discharge CT. The degree of deformation of the device will be reported.

Secondary Outcome Measures :

1. Number of Patients with Procedural Success [ Time Frame: 24 hours post-implant ]
   The number of patients who are successfully implanted with the device will be reported. This is measured by meeting all of the following criteria: Confirmation that the device is fixated within the desired location, RV-PA peak-to-peak gradient is less than 25 mmHg, Pulmonary regurgitation is moderate or less, and the subject is free of explantation at 24 hours post-implant.
2. Number of Patients with Serious Procedural Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Through 5 year follow-up ]
   The number of patients that experience a serious procedural adverse event, as defined per the study protocol, will be reported.
3. Number of Patients with Device-related Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Through 5 years ]
   The number of patients that experience a device-related adverse event, as defined per the study protocol, will be reported.
4. Number of Patients with Stent Fracture [ Time Frame: Through 5 years ]
   The number of patients that experience a stent fracture of their device will be reported.
5. Number of Patients with Catheter Re-intervention on the TPV [ Time Frame: Through 5 years ]
   The number of patients that experience a catheter re-intervention will be reported.
6. Assessment of Surgical Intervention on the TPV [ Time Frame: Through 5 years ]
   The number of patients that undergo a surgical intervention will be reported.
7. Number of Patient Deaths (all-cause, procedural, and device-related) [ Time Frame: Through 5 years ]
   Any patient deaths that occur during the study will be reported.
8. Pulmonary Regurgitant Fraction (%) as measured by cardiac MRI [ Time Frame: Through 5 years ]
   The pulmonary regurgitant fraction for all patients, as measured by cardiac MRI, will be reported.
9. Pulmonary Regurgitation Severity as Measured by Echocardiography [ Time Frame: Through 5 years ]
   The pulmonary regurgitation severity for all patients, as measured by echocardiography, will be reported.
10. Right Ventricular Volume (ml) as Measured by Cardiac MRI [ Time Frame: Through 5 years ]
    The right ventricular volumes for all patients, as measured by cardiac MRI, will be reported.
11. Mean RVOT Gradient (mmHg) as Measured by Color Wave Doppler [ Time Frame: Through 5 years ]
    The mean RVOT gradient for all patients, as measured by Color Wave Doppler, will be reported.
