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 The Micra Jugular Access Post Approval Study (PAS) is a prospective, observational, mutli-center study which is intended to characterize the safety and implant success of the Micra system when implant access is gained through the jugular vein.

Study Population Patients meeting the following criteria may be enrolled:

· Patient or legally authorized representative provides written authorization and/or consent per institution and geographical requirements.
· Patient is intended to receive, or be treated with, an eligible Medtronic (1) Micra TPS product with a planned jugular access implant
· Patient consented before implant
· Patient who is, or will be accessible for follow-up
· Participation is not excluded by local law
· Patient is not enrolled in a concurrent drug and/or device study that may confound the PSR results

Sample Size 50 subjects

Key Study Endpoints Main effectiveness objective 1: Characterize the rate of implant success of the Micra TPS through the jugular vein. A successful implant is defined as a Micra TPS implant via the jugular vein where a functioning device is placed within the right ventricle and the closure procedure is completed with the subject being alive at closure. Success rate of 98% (49/50) expected.

Main effectiveness objective 2: Characterize the rate of access site major complications associated with the Micra TPS implant utilizing the jugular implant approach. An acute major complication will be defined as a major complication which occurs within 30-days (inclusive) of a subject’s first implant attempt. Acute major complication rate estimated to be <1%.

Ancillary objectives:
- Characterize implant technique (e.g. implant time, closure methods, implant location)
- Summarize time to ambulation post implant
- Summarize procedure related adverse events
- Summarize system related adverse events
- Characterize device electricals at implant and 30 days post-implant.

Follow-up Visits and Length of Follow-up 30 days
Interim or Final Data Summary
Actual Number of Patients Enrolled 53 patients enrolled
Actual Number of Sites Enrolled 13 clinical sites enrolled (7 US, 6 EU)
Patient Follow-up Rate 51 patients (98.1%) completed 30-days of follow-up. 1 patient (1.9%) was lost to follow-up.
Final Safety Findings There were no major complications associated with the jugular access site.
There were four system related adverse events: one major complication (not related to procedure), two minor complications, and one observation.
There was one death due to a gastrointestinal bleed, which was classified by the independent Clinical Events Committee as unrelated to the procedure.
There were no device deficiencies or new safety concerns identified during the study.
Final Effect Findings 53 patients (100%) had successful implants using jugular vein access.
Among the 53 implant procedures, 52 (98.1%) used the right jugular vein and 1 (1.9%) used the left jugular vein to obtain venous access.
Among the 53 implant procedures, 50 (94.3%) placed the device in the RV septum and 3 (5.7%) in the RV apex.
Among the 53 implant procedures, 52 (98.1%) used three or less device deployments.
Median procedure time was 20.5 minutes (IQR: 16 to 31 minutes) in the 48 patients (90.6%) with data available.
Median fluoroscopy time was 5.4 minutes (IQR: 4 to 9 minutes) in the 51 patients (96.2%) with data available.
Median time to ambulation following venous closure was 2.0 hours (IQR: 0 to 2 hours) in the 18 patients (34%) with data available.
Study Strengths & Weaknesses Strengths:
• The results appear to confirm that real-world implanting physicians can deliver the Micra TPS device successfully using a jugular venous approach without major bleeding issues.
• There was a low complication rate, with 3 total adverse events related to jugular access procedure.

Weaknesses:
• There was missing patient characteristics data that was not reportable per local laws or regulations.
Recommendations for Labeling Changes Recommend the Micra TPS device labeling is updated to include the study results.
