About this trial
The subjects will be implanted with the ARTUS® medical device and then be followed up to 2 years post-implantation, with the primary endpoints measured at 3-month post-implantation. Safety and Clinical performance outcomes will be measured for each subject at baseline (before implantation) and post-implantation.
