COMMENCE Pulmonary: Clinical Evaluation of Edwards Pericardial Aortic Bioprosthesis (Model 11000A) for Pulmonary Valve Replacement

The objective of this trial is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards Pericardial Aortic Bioprosthesis Model 11000A, in the pulmonary position in pediatric and adult subjects five years or older requiring replacement of their native or prosthetic pulmonary valve.

This is a prospective, Non-Randomized, Single Arm, Multicenter study. Up to one hundred (100) pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) subjects at up to ten (10) clinical sites will be enrolled. Clinical data will be collected from at least 3 centers with data available on patients who have completed the 1 year follow-up visit. Subjects will be followed for and assessed after implant for up to 5 years.

Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:

1. Has pulmonary valve disease requiring pulmonary valve replacement of their native or prosthetic valve
2. Is greater than or equal to 5 years of age
3. Subject and/or subject's legal representative has provided written informed consent as approved and required by the respective institutional review board and agrees to its provisions. NOTE: Written consent must be obtained prior to any research related test being performed.

Exclusion criteria:

A subject meeting any of the following criteria shall be excluded:

1. Valve-in-conduit procedure

13. Was previously implanted with INSPIRIS RESILIA Pulmonary valve
14. Previously implanted with an aortic, mitral, or tricuspid bioprosthetic valve, mechanical valve, or annuloplasty ring
15. Need for concomitant replacement of the aortic, mitral or tricuspid valves
16. Has presence of non-cardiac disease limiting life expectancy to less than 12 months
17. Is Currently or has recently participated (within 6 weeks) in another investigational drug or device trial
18. Positive urine or serum pregnancy test in female subjects of child-bearing potential and/or nursing mothers, or planning to become pregnant within 1 year of study valve implant
