About this study

Official title: PERcutaneous heModynamic Support With Impella 2.5 During Scar-related Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the Impella 2.5 Circulatory Support System for use during mapping and ablation of ventricular tachycardia in the setting of Ventricular dysfunction.

Read the detailed description

The Impella 2.5 is a percutaneous heart pump that will be used to provide partial circulatory support -. The Impella 2.5 is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and is being tested to see if it helps keep the patient's blood pressure stable during the cardiac ablation procedure. The Impella 2.5 Circulatory Support System works by placing a small pump into the left pumping chamber of the heart which will then help the heart circulate blood throughout the body. The Impella 2.5 Circulatory Support system will be removed once the heart no longer needs help with the pumping action which can be at any time from just after the completion of the heart procedure up to several days post procedure as determined by physician.

What participants receive

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

  • Circulatory Support SystemDevice

    Also called Impella 2.5 Circulatory Support system insertion

    Femoral angiography will be performed, and if the anatomy is suitable, the femoral artery preclosure technique will be employed. The Impella 2.5 will be inserted through th femoral artery into the left ventricle. Anti-coagulation will be titrated to achieve a therapeutic ACT level. Organ perfusion and Hemodynamic data will be collected during simulated VTs and throughout the course of the case. The performance level of the device may be adjusted during the case to quantify hemodynamic effects

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Procedural Success

    Satisfactory hemodynamic status during the ablation procedure [during VT Mapping and Ablation Procedure], utilizing the Hemodynamic Support of Impella 2.5 Circulatory Support System

    Measured: Inpatient Admission

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Clinical Outcomes

    Morbidity and Mortality, as determined by clinical metrics and validated by tests during and immediately post VT Mapping and ablation procedure with cardiac monitoring in hospital and one Month [30 days] follow up telephone interview to assess symptoms, side effects and medication use.

    Measured: 1 Month post ablation Follow up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Circulatory Support System in people with Ventricular Tachycardia, run by Vivek Reddy at 1 site in United States.

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 12 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 14 Feb 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Feb 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Procedural Success (time frame: Inpatient Admission). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01294267, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 14 Feb 2018.
