ClinConnect Summary

Prospective, non-randomized, single center First In Human (FIH) trial for treatment of stenotic calcified coronary lesions with the Shockwave Lithoplasty System. Patients will be enrolled and consented in the study based on history and in some instances an angiogram obtained prior to the study. The study is designed to demonstrate that the Shockwave device can safely and effectively deliver localized shockwave energy for balloon dilatation of calcified, stenotic, coronary arteries. Subjects will be prepared for PCI per the institution's standard protocol. Medications will be administered pe...
