Prior to the implementation of the Medical Device Regulation (MDR), the clinical evaluation of existing devices was conducted by Notified Bodies (NBs) based on clinical data from equivalent devices, and CE marking was granted to devices demonstrating similar characteristics. Following the transition to the MDR, the European Commission's Guideline MEDDEV 2.12/2 noted that, compared to previous practices, Notified Bodies issuing CE certificates must verify the performance and safety of the device throughout its lifecycle in accordance with its intended use by conducting Post Marketing Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) studies are required to verify the performance and safety of the device in accordance with its intended use throughout its lifecycle. Consequently, PMCF studies are being planned to demonstrate that medical devices previously granted CE marking under the old practices can be used safely by patients throughout their lifecycle.
Primary Purpose To demonstrate the performance of the Bıçakcılar Aortic Root Cannula in patients for whom its use is planned, in accordance with the device's intended purpose as outlined in the user manual, taking into account the following aspects: bleeding, trauma, manipulation, placement and removal, compliance with the intended use, occlusion, retention of debris, effective use, and maintenance of its shape Secondary Objectives * To obtain observational data on secondary evaluation parameters (demographic data, concomitant diseases and treatments, biochemistry and echocardiography findings, vital and cardiological assessments, perfusion and cardioplegia assessments) * To evaluate the impact of the use of the Bıçakcılar Aortic Root Cannula on the development of adverse events and complications * To conduct post-market clinical follow-up of the Bıçakcılar Aortic Root Cannula

The Aortic Root Cannula and Vented Aortic Root Cannula are indicated for the administration of cardioplegic solutions during cardiac surgical procedures such as coronary artery bypass grafting, aortic valve replacement, mitral valve replacement, double valve replacement, and aortic valve replacement combined with coronary artery bypass grafting. The Aortic Root Cannula (35 cm) is indicated for use in minimally invasive surgeries.
Presence of bleeding
Primary endpoints are structured to encompass all clinical use outcomes characterizing device performance. Evaluation items directly related to the Bıçakcılar Vent Catheter will be measured using a Likert scale with values ranging from 1 to 5.
Time frame: It will be measured during the surgery up to 6 hours.
Impact of trauma
It will be used 5-likert scale.
Time frame: It will be measured during the surgery up to 6 hours.
Manipulation during placement
It will be used 5-likert scale.
Time frame: It will be measured during the surgery up to 6 hours.
Catheter removal
It will be used 5-likert scale.
Time frame: It will be measured during the surgery up to 6 hours.
