Overall Conclusions from Clinical Data
The HeartWare

HVAD
™
prospective, contemporaneous control trial. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety
and effectiveness in patients listed for cardiac transplantation with refractory, advanced heart
on the originally implanted HVAD
®
Pump or transplanted or explanted for recovery.
The analysis of the primary endpoint yielded non-inferiority of the HeartWare

HVAD

System to
the Safety Group and 0.9% for the Per Protocol Group. Each of these limits was less than the
15% non-inferiority margin (p-value <0.0001).
