SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Through study completion, an average of 44.5 months

SAEs are defined as events that result in death, are life-threatening, result in permanent disability, require medical treatment to prevent permanent disability or require surgical intervention or hospitalization. UADEs are defined as any serious adverse device effect which by its nature, incidence, severity or outcome has not been identified in the current version of the risk analysis report. Events were categorized using the Japanese registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support (J-MACS) definitions.

The device failures and malfunctions are the failures on pumping function due to thrombosis inside/outside of the implanted pump, the mechanical failures of the implanted components, the mechanical failures of the external components and the failures due to the user. Events were categorized using the J-MACS definitions.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Screening, Month 6 (180 days) and Month 24 (after follow-up (FU) completion)

The KCCQ is a self-evaluation questionnaire for patients with heart failure to assess the severity of their symptoms how it may affect their lives. Scores range between 0 (worst) - 100 (best). Values in the table were calculated as the value at Month 6 (180 days) minus Screening and at Month 24 (after FU completion) minus Screening. The positive change in KCCQ score indicates an improvement in patient Quality of Life.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Screening, Month 6 (180 days) and Month 24 (after FU completion)

The New York Heart Association (NYHA) Functional Classification places patients with heart failure in one of four categories based on how much they are limited during physical activity. Class I (best): No limitation of physical activity. Class II: Slight limitation of physical activity. Comfortable at rest. Class III: Marked limitation of physical activity. Comfortable at rest. Class IV (worst): Unable to carry on any physical activity without discomfort. Symptoms of heart failure at rest. A shift from a higher class (e.g. Class IV) to a lower class (e.g. Class II) indicates an improvement in patient health and functional status.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Screening, Month 6 (180 days) and Month 24 (after FU completion)

For the 6-minute walk test, the patient is asked to walk for 6 minutes. The total distance walked is measured. Values in the table were calculated as the value at Month 6 (180 days) minus Screening and at Month 24 (after FU completion) minus Screening. A positive change in 6-minute walk distance indicates an improvement in health and functional status.
