Vsling™ I: Clinical Evaluation of the Vsling™ Device for Ventricular Repair in Patients With Heart Failure

Recruiting now · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction

In brief

Prospective, multi-center, open-label clinical study of the feasibility and initial safety and performance of the Vsling™ in patients with heart failure (HF) with evidence of reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, associated with ventricular dilation.
