The V-LAP System for Remote Left Atrial Pressure Monitoring of Patients With Heart Failure

LPLeor PerlDMDavid MeerkinDDDomenico D’Amario

Key Result

The V-LAP left atrium monitoring system was safely implanted in 24 patients with heart failure, yielding no device-related complications and accurately reporting left atrial pressure at 3 months.

Structured PICO

Does the V-LAP system safely and accurately monitor left atrial pressure in patients with NYHA class III heart failure?

P
Population
24 patients with New York Heart Association class III heart failure who received the V-LAP left atrium monitoring system implant, followed for up to 6 months.
I
Intervention
V-LAP system (wireless left atrial pressure monitoring system) implanted in the interatrial septum via percutaneous, trans-septal approach
O
Outcome
Successful deployment of the implant, ability to perform initial pressure measurements, and safety outcomessafety

The V-LAP wireless left atrial pressure monitoring system appears safe, feasible, and accurate for remote monitoring in patients with NYHA class III heart failure.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Patients with heart failure (HF) are at an increased risk of hospital admissions. The aim of this report is to describe the feasibility, safety and accuracy of a novel wireless left atrial pressure (LAP) monitoring system in patients with HF. METHODS: The V-LAP Left Atrium Monitoring systEm for Patients With Chronic sysTOlic P = 0.076). CONCLUSION: The V-LAP left atrium monitoring system appears to be safe and accurate.

Perl et al. (2022) studied Heart failure (n=24). V-LAP left atrium monitoring system was evaluated on Successful deployment of the implant, the ability to perform initial pressure measurements and safety outcomes. The V-LAP left atrium monitoring system was safely implanted in 24 patients with heart failure, yielding no device-related complications and accurately reporting left atrial pressure at 3 months.
