What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Ovatio VR 6250 or DR6550Device

    The study requires the implantation of locally approved material:

    • A right ventricular defibrillation lead
    • In case of use of a dual chamber ICD a right atrial pacing lead
    • A single chamber or dual chamber ICD manufactured by SORIN Group. At begin of the study this will be OVATIO VR model 6250 and OVATIO DR model 6550. Any new devices of same type manufactured by SORIN Group which will become locally approved during the conduction of the trial can be used in the study.

    Holter recording will be performed with a market approved recording system allowing high resolution ECG recording compatible with the analysis software for TVar.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. TAV score and number of tachyarrhythmic events.

    Measured: The two phases M0 - M12 and M12 - M24 will be examined separately. For each 12 months period the TAV score at its beginning and tachyarrhythmic events in the following 12 months will be assessed. The NPV will be calculated for both phases.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. TAV change

    Measured: 12 months of follow up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ovatio VR 6250 or DR6550 in people with Sudden Cardiac Death, run by LivaNova at 30 sites in 4 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 19 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jan 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 30 sites in Germany, United States, Canada, Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

TAV score and number of tachyarrhythmic events. (time frame: The two phases M0 - M12 and M12 - M24 will be examined separately. For each 12 months period the TAV score at its beginning and tachyarrhythmic events in the following 12 months will be assessed. The NPV will be calculated for both phases.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Jan 2015.
