Treatment and study plan

PDA Coil

Device

The Nit-Occlud PDA is a permanently implanted prosthesis indicated for percutaneous, transcatheter closure of small to moderate size patent ductus arteriosus with a minimum angiographic diameter < 4 mm.

Primary outcomes

  1. Rate of Serious Device and/or Procedure Related Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety

    Time frame: 24 months (2 year)

    The primary safety endpoint is to demonstrate the 24-month serious device-related adverse event rate is no worse than the objective-performance criterion (OPC) of 1%.

  2. Rate of Complete PDA Closure as a Measure of Efficacy

    Time frame: 12 months (1 year)

    The primary effectiveness endpoint is to demonstrate the 12-month (1 year) complete closure rate for the device is no worse than the OPC of 85%. The closure of the ductus arteriosus will be assessed by absence of residual flow at 12 months (1 year) by transthoracic echocardiogram with 2-D color flow mapping and pulse wave Doppler (ECHO).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Rate of Device and/or Procedure Related Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety

    Time frame: 24 months (2 year)

    The secondary safety endpoint is to demonstrate that the rate of device-related adverse events reported through 24-months post procedure is no worse than 6% (OPC rate of 3% plus an added 3% margin).
