  • Research summary

    The rationale for conducting the PARADIGM study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the AVP III for closure of PVLs. Until recently, current treatment in the US and OUS included off-label use of various occluder devices. The study will collect safety and effectiveness data to support FDA approval and post market clinical follow-up (PMCF) requirements in Europe as a condition for CE Mark approval.

    The principal investigator or authorised designee, will screen the patient against the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The PI or designee will discuss the study with those patients that meet the eligibility criteria and follow the informed consent procedure detailed in ISO 14155.

    Standard-of-care data will be collected, and QoL-questionnaires will be administered at the baseline-visit and follow-up visits.

    Participants will receive their device as per standard-of-care. Data will be collected on the procedure and at discharge. Participants will be in the study for 12 months years. Participants will be followed-up in clinic as standard-of-care at 30 days, 6 and 12 month time points.
