The FDA has the authority to require sponsors to perform a post-approval study (or studies) at the time of approval of a premarket approval (PMA), humanitarian device exemption (HDE), or product development protocol (PDP) application. Post-approval studies can provide patients, health care professionals, the device industry, the FDA and other stakeholders information on the continued safety and effectiveness (or continued probable benefit, in the case of an HDE) of approved medical devices. This database allows you to search Post-Approval Study information by applicant or device information.

Detailed Study Protocol Parameters
Study Objectives Registry-based surveillance. The objective of the surveillance is to continue to monitor the performance of the HeartMate 3 LVAS in pediatric patients.
Study Population Pediatric patients with advanced refractory left ventricular heart failure and with an appropriate body surface area who require short- or long-term mechanical circulatory support (e.g., as bridge to transplant or myocardial recovery, or destination therapy).

Sample Size All consecutive pediatric patients treated with the HeartMate 3 LVAS within the first 2 years after the PMA approval that are entered into the Advanced Cardiac Therapies Improving Outcomes Network (ACTION) Registry.
Key Study Endpoints Patient outcomes (e.g., transplanted, expired, and explanted for recovery) and adverse events at 3, 6, 12, and 24 months.
Follow-up Visits and Length of Follow-up 2 years
Interim or Final Data Summary
Actual Number of Patients Enrolled 95
Actual Number of Sites Enrolled 59 centers in the ACTION Registry
Patient Follow-up Rate 3-month follow-up: 46 subjects received heart transplant (48.4%); 4 expired (4.2%); 3 subjects terminated participation due to other causes
(3.2%); and a total of 42 subjects remained on HM3 support (44.2%)

6-month follow-up: an additional 20 subjects received a transplant (for a total of 66 subjects who received a heart transplant at 6 months
(69.5%)); 1 additional subject expired (for a total of 5 subjects who expired at 6 months (5.3%)); 1 additional subject transferred to nonpa
Final Safety Findings 3-months*: Bleeding 11 subjects (11.6%); major infection 24 subjects (25.3%); respiratory failure 4 subjects (4.2%); right heart failure 12
subjects (12.6%), stroke 4 subjects (4.2%)
6-months*: Bleeding 11 subjects (11.6%); major infection 29 subjects (30.5%); respiratory failure 4 subjects (4.2%); right heart failure 12
subjects (12.6%), stroke 4 subjects (4.2%)
12-months*: Bleeding 11 subjects (11.6%); major infection 30 subjects (31.6%); respiratory failure 4 subjects (4.2%); right heart failure 12
subjects (12.6%), stroke 5 subjects (5.3%)
*Please note events are cumulative at each time point
Final Effect Findings Survival rates at 3, 6, and 12 months were 94.6%, 91.6%, and 85.5%
