Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
Inclusion Criteria:
Age: Adolescent (12-17 years) or Adult (age >18 years)
Uncorrected CHD (ASD, VSD, PDA, AVSD) with left to right + systemic pulmonary arterypressure or mixed shunting regardless if pulmonary vascular resistance is modifiableor fixed
Diagnosed with WHO Group 1 PH Classification pulmonary hypertension associated withcongenital heart disease, evidence by the following parameters measured at rest:
Mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) ≥ 50 mmHg
Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) or left ventricular end diastolicpressure (LVEDP) ≤ 15 mmHg.
Pulmonary vascular resistance > 3 Wood Units
Patients with left ventricular dilated cardiomyopathy with symptoms despite optimalmedical therapy
Current WHO Functional Class III or IV.
Patients with the following anatomical dimensions (gated CT with angio or MRI withEKG) at target implantation site:
MPA diameter @ systolic ≥ 15 mm and ≤ 24 mm and length @ systolic ≥ 28 mm, or
Left and Right PA Branch diameter @ systolic ≥ 15 mm and ≤ 24 mm and length @systolic ≥ 28 mm
Main pulmonary artery (MPA) or left/right PA Branch anatomy suitable for placementof the device as defined in the Instructions For Use (IFU) and as assessed bycomputed tomography (CT), fluoroscopy or echocardiography.
Each patient, or his or her guardian or legal representative, is willing to giveinformed consent, subject to national law.
Exclusion
Exclusion Criteria:
Right ventricular dysfunction
Severe AV valve regurgitation of the pulmonary ventricle
Complex CHD
Ongoing infection
Patients where definitive correction of the CHD is indicated and available as apossible treatment option
Patients with pressure gradient across the systemic outflow tract/subaortic region >40 mmHg @ rest

Known or suspected thrombosis of the femoral or iliac veins on the proposed site ofvenous cannulation
Vasculature lesions or characteristics that prevent percutaneous transluminalcatheterization
Allergies or contraindications to prescribed procedural medications and contrastmedium Anomalous pulmonary venous return (total or partial)
Likely inability to comply with the protocol or cooperate fully with theinvestigator and site personnel
Mental incapacity, unwillingness or language barrier precluding adequateunderstanding of the trial procedure or cooperation with trial site personnel
Pregnant, lactating or planning pregnancy
