Sternal Fixation With STERN FIX After Medial Sternotomy

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this single arm observational registry is to evaluate the safety and performance of the STERN FIX device in normal conditions of use, in patients treated with medial sternotomy according to the instructions for use. The main goal of this registry is to evaluate the sternal stability in patients who had their sternum fixed with the STERN FIX system. Participants will have their sternotomy closed with the STERN FIX device at the end of their cardiothoracic surgery and will be followed up as per standard of care. At discharge and at the 1 month FU visit the sternal stability will be assessed using the sternal instability scale (SIS).
