What this Trial Is About
VahatiCor's Coronary Sinus Reducer (A-FLUX) has been designed to improve angina or angina-like symptoms in patients with CMD. SERRA-I is an early feasibility study that evaluates the safety and clinical performance of the A-FLUX Reducer in this population.

Who Can Participate
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if you...
- Older than 18 years of age.
- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is greater than or equal to 25% within the 12 months before the index procedure.
- Persistent symptomatic coronary microvascular dysfunction (angina pectoris or equivalent symptoms) for 30 days or more, classified as CCS Grade II-IV angina or NYHA Class 2 or 3 equivalent non-anginal functional impairment, despite optimal medical therapy.
- Coronary flow reserve less than 2.5 measured with continuous thermodilution within 30 days of the procedure.
- Sustained angina or equivalent symptoms reported for at least 2 weeks leading up to the procedure, as recorded via the ORBITA-app.
- Willing and able to sign informed consent.
- Willing to comply with specified follow-up evaluations.
- Mean right atrial pressure less than or equal to 15 mmHg.
- Coronary sinus anatomy suitable for implantation as determined by the Investigator.
You will not qualify if you...
- Significant obstructive epicardial disease (greater than 50% diameter stenosis) treatable with PCI or CABG.
- Acute coronary syndrome (NSTEMI or STEMI) with positive troponin or CKMB within 30 days before the procedure.
- Extra-coronary causes of angina such as untreated hyperthyroidism, severe anemia (Hgb less than 9 g/dL), uncontrolled hypertension (systolic >160 mmHg or diastolic >100 mmHg despite medications), atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response (>100 bpm despite medications), severe aortic stenosis, decompensated heart failure, or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.
- NYHA class IV heart failure, decompensated heart failure, or hospitalization due to heart failure within 90 days before the procedure.
- Life-threatening or rhythm disorders requiring cardiac resynchronization therapy or coronary sinus lead placement.
- Severe COPD indicated by FEV1 less than 1.0L, need for home oxygen, or regular oral steroids.
- Severe valvular heart disease.
- Moderate or severe right ventricular dysfunction by echocardiography.
- Presence of a pacemaker lead in the coronary sinus.
- Recent pacemaker or defibrillator lead implantation in the right atrium within 90 days.
- Chronic severe renal failure (eGFR less than 30 mL/min/1.73m2) or on chronic dialysis.
- Known allergy to titanium, nickel, platinum, tungsten, or inability to tolerate contrast medium.
- Any condition interfering with trial compliance, including active substance use or cognitive decline.
- Enrollment in another investigational device or drug trial that may interfere with this study.
- Pregnancy or planning pregnancy within 12 months (females must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days of procedure).
- Vulnerable populations unable to give informed consent.
- Inability to tolerate dual antiplatelet therapy or P2Y12 inhibitors for at least 6 months as required.
- Comorbidities limiting life expectancy to less than one year.
- Currently hospitalized for definite or suspected COVID-19.
