Study Summary
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
Key Inclusion Criteria
Failed at least 6 months of conservative therapy at some point during the course oftheir CVI management (symptoms not adequately resolved or patientnon-compliant/unable to tolerate)
Deep system venous reflux characterized by >1 second reflux time in two veinsegments (vein segments defined as: proximal femoral, distal femoral, andpopliteal), as assessed by duplex ultrasound (DUS) with patient in the standingposition
Presence of at least two potential target sites within a target vessel as assessedpreliminarily by DUS, with a target site being defined as a segment within thefemoral or popliteal vein that is:
7mm to 11mm in luminal diameter and at least 3cm long and absent features that, inthe Investigator's opinion, would preclude formation of a monocuspid valve (at anyorientation).
- In the Investigator's opinion, the subject is a good candidate for treatment withthe BlueLeaf System based on their symptoms, quality of life, anatomy, and thelikelihood of benefit from continued conservative therapy
Exclusion
Key Exclusion Criteria:
Untreated significant superficial venous incompetence which, in the opinion of theInvestigator, may be the primary source of existing symptoms
Acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) within 1 year of consent
Deep venous intervention (includes stenting) in the target limb or outflow vesselswithin 3 months of consent
Flow-limiting venous outflow obstruction central to the intended target sites,defined by a common femoral vein duplex exam found to have a continuous waveformwithout respiratory variation
Contraindications to all protocol specified anticoagulation options
Known and uncontrolled hypercoagulopathy (i.e. hypercoagulopathy that cannot beadequately managed/controlled with medication)
Women on long-term oral contraceptives
Non-ambulatory patients
Significant peripheral arterial disease with an ankle-brachial index of < 0.70 orwith incompressible vessels
New York Heart Association Class III or IV heart failure
Patients with a history of right heart failure occurring as a consequence of, forexample, biventricular failure, intrinsic pulmonary disease, chronic thromboembolicpulmonary hypertension, and other etiologies that result in elevated right-sidedpressures.
Active systemic infection
Invasive surgical procedure within the last 3 months that in the Investigator'sopinion would interfere with the study procedure or results
Chronic renal insufficiency with creatinine level of ≥ 2mg/dL
Hemoglobin level < 9.0 mg/dL
Platelet count < 50,000 or > 1,000,000/mm3
Total white blood cell count < 3,000/mm3
Subject is enrolled in another clinical study that, in the opinion of theInvestigator, may conflict with this study or compromise study results
Comorbidity risks or other concerns which, in the opinion of the Investigator,either limits longevity or likelihood of complying with the protocol and itsprescribed follow up (e.g. recent cancer or stroke); or precludes patient from beingtransitioned to open surgery if complication requiring surgical intervention occursduring the procedure (such as severe vein laceration).
