detailed description
The Impulse Dynamics OPTIMIZER Smart Pre-Market Application (PMA) clinical data confirmed that CCM therapy delivered with the Optimizer meaningfully improved health outcomes in patients with NYHA class III heart failure symptoms and left ventricular ejection fraction of 25-45%. CCM has shown significant improvements in quality of life measures, with an average improvement of \>11 points in MLHWFQ incremental to the improvement of a randomized control group with no device. Six minute hall walk and functional class also showed improvements in the PMA data. The post-approval study (PAS) protocol has been designed to evaluate long term safety and efficacy of the OPTIMIZER Smart in a real-world setting.
