NCT ID NCT06812533
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 17, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests a new device that creates a small passage in the heart to relieve pressure, without leaving a permanent implant. It is for 350 people with heart failure and reduced pumping ability. The goal is to see if it reduces deaths, need for a heart pump or transplant, and heart failure events.
