About this study

The goal of this registry/observational study is to collect data on the clinical utility of MediGuide™ system in cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) implantation and electrophysiology (EP) procedures.

Read the detailed description

The intent of this worldwide registry/observational study is to understand the utility of the MediGuide™ technology in real world clinical practice during CRT implantation and study-specific-EP procedures. The study should provide an understanding of the effect of MediGuide™ technology on:

  • The amount of fluoroscopy time and the radiation exposure
  • Total procedure time
  • Peri-procedural clinical event rate

Additionally, this study will address the following

  • Identification of procedural challenges which may aid in developing future MediGuide tools
  • Evaluation of newly available MediGuide tools during the study
  • Correlation between MediGuide operator experience and the radiation exposure amount and time

What participants receive

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

  • CRT implantationProcedure or surgery

    It is a novel 3D electromagnetic navigation system (MediGuide™) that is capable of non-fluoroscopic navigation of sensor-enabled tools in the x-ray environment

Study groups in NCT02470312
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CRTPatients who are undergoing CRT implantation utilizing MediGuide system and tools
Receives: Procedure: CRT implantation; Device: MediGuide
EPPatients who are undergoing ablation procedures for Atrial Fibrillation, Atrial Flutter, and Ventricular Tachycardia utilizing MediGuide system and tools
Receives: Device: MediGuide; Procedure: EP

What is being measured

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

  1. Amount of Fluoroscopy Time

    Amount of fluoroscopy time during CRT implant or EP procedure

    Measured: Expected time frame is day 1 of the study

  2. Periprocedural Adverse Event

    Adverse event until patients are discharged from the site center

    Measured: From the day of CRT and EP procedure until patient discharge, expected stay is an average of 3 days

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted12 Jun 2015 (estimated)
  2. Study start18 Aug 2015
  3. Primary completion10 Feb 2017
  4. Study completion28 Feb 2018

Why it stopped: Existing trials demonstrate reduction in fluoroscopy with MediGuide

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure and Cardiac Arrhythmia, run by Abbott Medical Devices at 16 sites in 8 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 1 inclusion and 1 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in United States, Germany, Australia, Austria, Canada and 3 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Jan 2019). 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?

Amount of Fluoroscopy Time (time frame: Expected time frame is day 1 of the study). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 4 Feb 2019.
