Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the performance and safety of the HeartMate 3 Left Ventricular Assist System (HM3 LVAS) To support obtaining CE Mark for the HM3 LVAS in Europe, a multi-center clinical study will be conducted in multiple countries. The clinical study will be conducted in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki, ICH/GCP and EN ISO 14155:2011 Requirements for Clinical Investigations and in accordance with country-specific requirements, under one clinical study protocol.

This study will evaluate the performance of the HM3 LVAS, side effects and undesirable conditions within acceptable risks and weigh them against the intended performance of HM3 LVAS in accordance with Essential Requirements 2, 5 and 16 of the Active Implantable Medical Device Directive 90/385/EEC (AIMDD).

3. Existence of ongoing mechanical circulatory support (MCS) other than IABP
4. Positive pregnancy test if of childbearing potential
5. Lactating mothers
6. Presence of mechanical aortic cardiac valve that will not be converted to a bioprosthesis at the time of LVAD implant
7. History of any organ transplant
8. Platelet count \< 100,000 x 103/L (\< 100,000/ml)

10. History of confirmed, untreated AAA \> 5 cm in diameter
11. Presence of an active, uncontrolled infection
12. Intolerance to anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapies or any other peri/post-operative therapy the investigator will require based upon the patients' health status
13. Presence of any one of the following risk factors for indications of severe end organ dysfunction or failure:

1. An INR ≥ 2.5 not due to anticoagulation therapy
2. Total bilirubin \> 43 umol/L (2.5 mg/dl), shock liver, or biopsy proven liver cirrhosis
