• A positive COVID-19 test prior to the study procedure in accordance with local COVID-19 protocol.
• Presence of other anatomic or comorbid conditions, or other medical, social or psychological conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, could limit the participant's ability to participate in the clinical investigation or to comply with follow-up requirements, or impact the scientific soundness of the clinical investigation results.
