The ELEVATE III Pivotal Study is a prospective, multi-center, open-label, interventional, randomized, controlled study with an active control group. The study is intended to assess the safety and efficacy of the Elevate™ percutaneous Left Ventricular Assist Device System in patients referred to high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions (HR-PCI).
The Elevate™ percutaneous Left Ventricular Assist Device System is a temporary (≤ 6 hours) ventricular support device indicated for use during high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions (HR-PCI) performed electively or urgently in hemodynamically stable patients with severe coronary artery disease. Use of the Elevate™ System in these patients may prevent hemodynamic instability, which can result from repeat episodes of reversible myocardial ischemia that occur during planned temporary coronary occlusions.
