RecruitingDevice studyAssessment of Safety and Accuracy of the Microtech System in Patients Undergoing Left Ventricular Assist Device ImplantationThe Microtech-LVAD study is designed as a prospective, single arm, multi-center early feasibility study. Approximately 15 patients will be enrolled in the study. The study will be limited to patients in whom it is decided, based on routine clinical practice, that the LVAD will be implanted via a midline sternotomy.
