About this study

The purpose of this evaluation is to assess the acceptance level of specific programming recommendations based on the patient's clinical needs and primary indications when using the feature 'Indications Based Programming' (IBP) available in the ZOOMVIEW Software Application for the TELIGEN DR / VR and COGNIS family of devices compared to daily life programming chosen by physicians.

Read the detailed description

"This study will focus on documenting the final parameter changes that are made in comparison to the IBP recommendations for a specific cardiovascular and arrhythmia history. It will therefore compare the device settings that were finally programmed during the last available follow up procedure to the last available parameter recommendations of IBP. IBP was designed to facilitate programming by providing customized parameter settings based on a patient's clinical needs and primary indication.

In order to further enhance the IBP feature for future device generations, additional data may be collected and evaluated on:

  • Physician perception and satisfaction with the New User Interface (NUI) of the programming application;
  • Motivation for adapting IBP recommendations for the final programming of the device;
  • Device data that can be retrieved from patient data disks that may include but is not limited to, arrhythmia episode detail, pacing counter data; total and individual therapy data"
Being tested
Cognis 100-D, Teligen DR and VR 100 HE
Medical subject headings
Tachycardia, Ventricular, Ventricular Flutter, Ventricular Fibrillation, Heart Failure

What participants receive

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

  • Cognis 100-D, Teligen DR and VR 100 HEDevice

    Teligen is an implantable defibrillator for detection and termination of life threatening arrhythmias. Cognis includes in addition to these capabilities cardiac resynchronization therapy for patients having heart failure.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ICD and CRT-DPatients indicated for an implantable defibrillator or cardiac resynchronization defibrillator
Receives: Device: Cognis 100-D, Teligen DR and VR 100 HE

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients that are programmed by the physician to anything other than the recommended IBP setting

    Measured: 6 Months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. - Degree of acceptance of IBP - Proportion parameters changed per patient - Differences between recommended and final programmed parameters - Total number of parameter changes from IBP recommendations - Frequency of changes made to a single parameter

    Measured: 6 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ventricular Tachycardia and Ventricular Flutter, run by Boston Scientific Corporation at 28 sites in 11 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 23 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 28 sites in Germany, France, Spain, Austria, Netherlands and 6 more countries. 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.

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?

Proportion of patients that are programmed by the physician to anything other than the recommended IBP setting (time frame: 6 Months). 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 23 Feb 2017.
