Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to obtain a single-center safety and feasibility data on patients managed with a single anti-thrombotic therapy and the incidence of thrombotic adverse events associated with HeartMate 3 LVAS therapy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients implanted with the HeartMate 3 LVAS in whom at least 6 months reduced anticoagulation therapy (INR range 1.5-1.9 along with antiplatelet therapy) has been accomplished safely will be screened for participation in the study. If inclusion criteria are met, patients will be transitioned to a single anti-thrombotic therapy with Acetylsalicylic Acid (ASA) and anticoagulation with warfarin will be removed. ASA will be administered in a minimum dose of 100 mg per day with dosage adjustments based on VerifyNow testing up to a maximum of 200 mg daily. The primary endpoint will be analyzed at 90 days after initiation of the single antiplatelet therapy.

Eligibility Criteria

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

Inclusion Criteria

* patients implanted with HeartMate 3 LVAS irrespective of intended goal of treatment of bridge to transplant or destination therapy
* 6 months or more on reduced anti-coagulation regimen (target INR 1.5-1.9) free of thromboembolic and thrombotic complications
* evidence of forward flow across the aortic valve (with aortic valve opening of at least 1:2 per cardiac cycle) at baseline echocardiography (ECHO) or after the speed optimization without a significant progression of heart failure based on a biomarker and complex clinical assessment follow-up

Exclusion Criteria

* absence of an informed consent
* presence of any prosthetic valve
* known history of major thrombotic event e.g. DVT
* known history of stroke
* left atrial appendage in patients with atrial fibrillation or flutter not addressed by resection or exclusion at a time of the implant
* evidence of any intracardiac thrombus
* any clinical indication for use of long-term warfarin anticoagulation (e.g. known genetic thrombotic mutation, malignancy)
