Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Study patient is at least 18-years old
* Ejection Fraction: ≥20 and ≤40%
* LV end-diastolic diameter ≥55 mm
* Symptom Status: NYHA III-IV (i.e., ambulatory)
* Treatment and compliance with optimal guideline directed medical and device-based therapies for heart failure (unless contraindicated or intolerant) for at least 3 months and stable doses for 1 month with stable defined as no more than 100% increase or 50% decrease of total daily doses.
* Patients with left bundle branch block pattern and QRS duration \>150ms are required to have a CRT device for at least 3 months
* Patients required to have an ICD are required to have ICD implant at least 1 month prior to enrollment
* Able and willing to complete all qualifying diagnostic and functional tests and agrees to comply with study follow-up schedule

Exclusion Criteria

* Myocardial infarction or any percutaneous cardiovascular intervention, cardiovascular surgery, or carotid surgery within 3 months
* Mitral regurgitation grade 3 (moderate-severe) or more
* Prior surgical, transcatheter, or percutaneous mitral valve intervention
* Untreated clinically significant coronary artery disease (CAD) requiring revascularization
* Hemodynamic instability: Hypotension (systolic pressure \<90 mmHg) or requirement for inotropic support or mechanical hemodynamic support
* Any planned cardiac surgery or interventions within the next 6 months (including right heart procedures)
* NYHA class IV (i.e., non-ambulatory)
* Significant RV dysfunction (TAPSE \< 14)
* Severe tricuspid regurgitation
* Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, constrictive pericarditis, or any other structural heart disease causing heart failure other than dilated cardiomyopathy of either ischemic or non-ischemic etiology
* Anatomical pathology or constraints preventing appropriate access/implant of the AccuCinch® Ventricular Repair System (e.g., femoral arteries will not support a 20F system)
* Renal insufficiency (i.e., eGFR of \<30ml/min/1.73m2; Stage 4 or 5 CKD)
* Moderate or severe aortic valve stenosis or regurgitation or aortic valve prosthesis
* Fluoroscopic or echocardiographic evidence of severe aortic arch calcification, mobile aortic atheroma, intracardiac mass, thrombus or vegetation
* Active bacterial endocarditis
* History of any stroke within the prior 3 months or Modified Rankin Scale ≥ 4 disability from any prior stroke
* Subjects in whom anticoagulation or antiplatelet therapy is contraindicated
* Known allergy to nitinol, polyester, or polyethylene
* Any prior true anaphylactic reaction to contrast agents; defined as known anaphylactoid or other non-anaphylactic allergic reactions to contrast agents that cannot be adequately pre-medicated prior to the index procedure.
* Life expectancy \< 1 year due to non-cardiac conditions
* Currently participating in another interventional investigational study
* Implant or revision of any rhythm management device (CRT or CRT-D) prior 3 months or implantable cardioverter defibrillator within the prior 1 month
* Subjects on high dose steroids or immunosuppressant therapy
* Female subjects who are pregnant, of child bearing potential without a documented birth control method, or lactating
