Medtronic Cardiac Surgery PMCF Registry is a study to keep track of how well certain heart surgery devices work after they've been sold. A registry is like a big list that keeps information about patients who have used these devices. This study is important because it helps doctors learn more about the safety and effectiveness of the devices over time. To join, patients must agree in writing and must have used or plan to use an approved product. They should also be within the timeframe for joining the registry. People can't join if they won't be available for check-ups, if local laws say they can't, or if they're in another drug or device study that might mix up the results.
- Participants might have regular follow-ups to see how they are doing with the device.
- The study is for those who have used or will use specific heart surgery devices.
- It is not for people in other studies that could affect results.
Joining helps improve knowledge about heart surgery devices, but it's important to consider if you can attend follow-ups and if you're not in other studies.
