About this study

Official title: GORE® HELEX® Septal Occluder Post-Approval Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the GORE® HELEX® Septal Occluder in the treatment of ostium secundum atrial septal defects (ASDs).

Read the detailed description

The GORE® HELEX® Septal Occluder is an approved medical device indicated for the transcatheter closure of atrial septal defects (ASDs). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the GORE® HELEX® Septal Occluder in the treatment of ostium secundum atrial septal defects (ASDs). This is an FDA Condition of Approval Study. All subjects enrolled in this study will be followed for long-term safety and efficacy of the occluder device through 5 years.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Efficacy

    A calculation of the proportion of subjects with clinically successful defect closure as determined by the site at 1, 3, and 5 years postprocedure. Clinical Success is a composite measure of safety and efficacy evaluated at the 12-, 36-, and 60-month post-procedure evaluations and is defined as absence of:

    • Any major device/procedure adverse event
    • Repeat procedure to the target ASD. Repeat procedures were considered major adverse events and are included in the major adverse event group.
    • Clinically significant leak at the follow-up visit

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Efficacy

    A calculation of the proportion of subjects with clinically successful defect closure as determined by the site at 1, 3, and 5 years postprocedure.

    Clinical Success is a composite measure of safety and efficacy evaluated at the 12-, 36-, and 60-month post-procedure evaluations and is defined as absence of:

    • Any major device/procedure adverse event
    • Repeat procedure to the target ASD. Repeat procedures were considered major adverse events and are included in the major adverse event group.
    • Clinically significant leak at the follow-up visit

    Measured: 36 months

  3. Efficacy

    A calculation of the proportion of subjects with clinically successful defect closure as determined by the site at 1, 3, and 5 years postprocedure.

    Clinical Success is a composite measure of safety and efficacy evaluated at the 12-, 36-, and 60-month post-procedure evaluations and is defined as absence of:

    • Clinically significant leak at the follow-up visit

    Measured: 60 months

  4. Safety

    A calculation of the proportion of subjects experiencing one or more major device or procedure related adverse event(s) at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years post procedure.

    Measured: 5 years
