  2. Subjects with an active infection at the Sensor Implant Visit
  3. Subjects with history of recurrent (> 1) pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis
  4. Subjects who have had a major cardiovascular event (e.g., myocardial infarction, stroke) within 2 months of the Screening Visit
  5. Subjects whereby RHC or computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is contraindicated
  6. Subjects with a Cardiac Resynchronization Device (CRT), Internal Cardiac Defibrillator (ICD) or pacemaker (if implanted less than 6 months or has more than a single lead), or Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD)
  7. Any major surgery within 30 days of the Sensor Implant Visit.
  8. Subjects with a Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) <30 ml/min or who are on chronic renal dialysis
  9. Specific liver enzymes [Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) (SGOT), and Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) (SGPT) >3 times the upper limit of normal

  18. Subjects with an indwelling inferior vena cava (IVC) filter
  19. Subjects who are pregnant or breastfeeding
  20. Subjects whose clinical condition, in the opinion of the Investigator, makes them an unsuitable candidate for the study
