Interatrial Shunt Therapy

A novel investigational approach for heart failure patients

Current options for heart failure are limited to lifestyle changes, medications and implantable devices to help manage symptoms. However, many patients continue to face challenges in daily life including frequent visits to the hospital.

A new investigational procedure, interatrial shunting, is currently being evaluated for heart failure.

The Alleviant System is an investigational medical device being studied in patients suffering from heart failure who are symptomatic despite optimal approved therapies.

Novel Investigational Treatment

Interatrial shunt without an implant

Alleviant's investigational, minimally invasive approach is designed to reduce excess pressure in the heart without leaving behind a permanent implant.

CAUTION - Investigational device - Not for sale. Limited by Federal (or United States) law to investigational use. Exclusively for clinical investigation and to be used by qualified investigators only.

Early Clinical Outcomes

Dr. Rob Gooley shares a patient's experience with the investigational device.
