Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Safe Stent Removal
Description
The stent removal is considered safe when the Study Device is removed successfully and without SAEs.
Time Frame
Upon Removal
Other Pre-specified Outcome Measures:
Title
Primary Device Patency
Description
Primary device patency is defined as the freedom from device occlusion requiring intervention (during the treatment period).
Time Frame
12 Months
Title
Successful Delivery and Deployment
Description
This requires successful delivery and deployment of the device at the intended site.
Time Frame
Upon Implant
Title
Successful Treatment of Benign Stricture Upon Implant
Description
Successful treatment of strictures is defined as stricture resolution upon implant as reported by the PI. For the purpose of this report, we will be referring to this as "stented stricture resolution".
Time Frame
Upon implant
Title
Secondary Patency
Time Frame
12 Months
Title
Viability of Treatment
Description
Treatment is considered viable when the Study Device is removed and the structure is either resolved or improved without the need for re-stenting at the time of Study Device removal.
Time Frame
Upon Removal
Title
Secondary Patency Post Study Device Removal
Description
Secondary patency post study device removal is defined as the absence of stricture recurrence from time of Study Device removal to study completion or lost to follow up. Secondary Patency is also known as Long Term Stricture Resolution.
Time Frame
15 Months
Title
Primary Patency of Treated Stricture
Description
Primary patency of the treated stricture is defined as freedom from stricture intervention due to occlusion following Study Device removal.
Time Frame
15 Months
