  Purpose

The primary endpoint of this study is the percent difference between the VentriPoint Medical System (VMS) and cMRI for estimating the end diastolic and end systolic right ventricular volumes (RVEDV and RVESV) in subjects with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH). The trial will be defined as positive if the mean VMS-cMRI percent difference is <10% and >-10% at a 1-sided 0.025 statistical significance level for RVEDV and for RVESV, with no safety concerns for the VMS procedure.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The comparison of the VMS and MRI values for EDV, ESV and EF using 75 subjects [ Time Frame: 8 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 83
Study Start Date: April 2012
Estimated Study Completion Date: December 2012
Estimated Primary Completion Date: November 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Right ventrical volumn comparison
Single arm study comparing Ventripoint Medical System (VMS) right ventricle volume measurement to gold standard cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (cMRI) measurement in patients with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension.
 Device: Ventripoint Medical System

The subjects will undergo a 2D echocardiography according to standard of care. An additional 5 - 10 minutes of scanning using VMS transducer attached to the echocardiography system to acquire images for 3-D reconstruction is required.

Within one day of the VMS image acquisition the subjects will also undergo cMRI according to hospital standards of care plus an additional 5 minutes to capture the PSSS required images.

Detailed Description:

The objective of this study is: The comparison of the VMS and MRI values for EDV, ESV, and EF using 75 subjects.

Secondary objectives are:

The determination of VMS inter-observer and intra-observer variability of these quantities using 30 subjects.
