Numerous clinical studies have evaluated the efficacy of the MANTA device across a range of patient populations undergoing different procedures.

The MANTA device was successfully deployed in 19 patients, with 10 procedures conducted at the bedside and 9 in an operating room setting. Complete hemostasis was achieved within 5 minutes of MANTA deployment in 17 out of 19 patients. In 2 patients manual compression after Manta deployment was required to achieve adequate hemostasis.

Post-decannulation ischemic complications are higher in this series of sick patients when compared with elective procedures like transcatheter aortic valve replacement and endovascular aneurysm repair.

Differentiating HCM from other diseases associated with LV hypertrophy, such as hypertension, aortic stenosis, or LV non-compaction (LVNC), can at times be challenging. LVNC is defined by excessive LV trabeculation and deep recesses between trabeculae, often accompanied by increased LV myocardial mass. Previous studies indicate that the LVNC phenotype may be observed in up to 5% of the general population; however, in most cases, it is a benign finding with no impact on clinical outcomes. Nevertheless, LVNC can occasionally lead to LV systolic dysfunction, manifesting as a phenotype of dilated or non-dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy, with an increased risk of thrombus formation and arterial embolism. In extreme cases, where LVNC is associated with a very thickened LV wall, it can even mimic HCM.
