Details and patient eligibility

About

This is a prospective, multi-center, single arm PMCF study to evaluate the safety and performance of the ENTACT (Next Generation) resorbable staple system for septoplasty in 40 subjects. The study purpose is to provide evidence to satisfy the PMCF requirements of CE Marking to market this device in Europe (data may be used to support registrations on other countries as well).

Full description

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate clinical success of the ENTACT (Next Generation) resorbable septal staple system by examining the patient's nasal cavity at the 21 day follow-up visit.

The secondary objectives are to generate performance and health economics data to support the use of ENTACT (Next Generation) resorbable septal staple.

Enrollment: 40 patients

Sex: All

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

The patient will be eligible for the study if he or she meets all of the following inclusion criteria at the baseline screening:

1. Able and willing to give informed consent by voluntarily providing written informed consent in accordance with governing Institutional Review Board (IRB);
2. Clinically significant deviation of the nasal septum;
3. Willing and able to make all required study visits;
4. Able to read and understand the approved informed consent form and patient reported outcome assessments (written and oral)

Exclusion criteria

The patient will be ineligible for the study if he or she meets any of the following exclusion criteria at the baseline screening or during surgery:

1. Prolonged tissue approximation beyond that needed for normal tissue closure is necessary or desired;
2. Traditional suturing techniques are necessary;
3. Radiopacity is necessary or desired since ENTACT septal staples are radiotransparent;
4. Known to be allergic to foreign body of materials of investigational product;
5. Concomitant procedures other than turbinectomy, turbinate reduction, and/or sinus surgery;
6. Pregnancy at time of procedure;
7. Presence of infection at the site;
