About this study

A prospective post-market study to evaluate the performance and clinic usability of heart failure risk status (HFRS) feature on CareLink.

Read the detailed description

Patients with systolic heart failure (HF) implanted with Medtronic wireless implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) or cardiac resynchronization therapy device with defibrillation capabilities (CRT-D) devices will be enrolled in the study. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the usability of CareLink HFRS to manage a patient's heart failure.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
no treatmentnon-randomized, all subjects who have been implanted with an ICD or CRT-D for at least 3 months

What is being measured

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

  1. Heart Failure Risk Status Performance Characterization

    The clinical signs and symptoms of worsening HF that are associated with an Heart Failure Risk Status triggered by an OptiVol alert

    Measured: from baseline until a subject completes 8 months of follow up

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Heart Failure Risk Status and medical management

    The correlation between HFRS burden and clinician's assessment of a subject risk and the subject's medical management

    Measured: from baseline for each subject until they complete 8 months of follow up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure, run by Medtronic at 3 sites in Canada.

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 9 inclusion and 2 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 25 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Canada. 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?

Heart Failure Risk Status Performance Characterization (time frame: from baseline until a subject completes 8 months of follow up). 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 25 Sep 2018.
