Summary

This trial is testing a new system to help people with ADHF. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it works well.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with advanced heart failure (NYHA Class III-IV), specifically those who aren't responding well to diuretics and have Stage C-D systolic heart failure. It's not suitable for patients with recent heart attacks, severe valve insufficiency in the heart, or serious blood vessel problems.
What is being tested?
The trial is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a device called the preCARDIA System designed to help manage symptoms in patients suffering from acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed, interventions like the preCARDIA System may cause discomfort at the site of insertion, potential vascular complications, or irregular heartbeat during use.
