About this trial

The goal of this project is to provide an improvement in wire performance to expedite crossing difficult lesions in the coronary vasculature.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Male or female, over 18 years of age, presenting with at least one ischemia inducing lesion in a native coronary artery that is refractory to standard guidewire crossing. Chronic total occlusion (CTO) is defined as 100% coronary blockage for over a 3-month duration documented either by prior catheterization or by clinical evaluation

Suitable candidate for non-emergent, coronary angioplasty

Documented de-novo or restenotic coronary chronic total occlusion defined as a lesion with TIMI 0 flow for at least 90 days refractory to conventional guidewire crossing

Left ventricle ejection fraction > 20% within the last 12 months.

Disqualifiers

Successful target lesion crossing with a conventional wire system prior to enrollment

Prisoners.

Pregnancy

Patient has an active implantable.
