Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

The primary outcome measure is the freedom from Serious Adverse Device Effects, defined as the number of patients without SADEs.
6 Months

Adverse device effects will be sub-classified into device-related or procedure-related, when the adverse event has a generic cause independent from the device itself and occurs within 30 days of the implant procedure.
