About this study

Official title: Randomised ELR Monitoring Against Permanent Pacemaker in Atrial Fibrillation

Randomised crossover study comparing the sensitivity and specificity of 5 External loop recorders in detecting pacemaker detected Atrial fibrillation burden.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of the study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of the ZIO xt , MoMe, TECHNOMED pocket ECG and Nuubo to the R-test, our current standard clinical practice, in detection of AF burden, in patients with history of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation and have a dual chamber pacemaker or ICD in situ, with sensitivity and specificity of AF detection calculated from the implanted pacemaker monitored beat to beat holters.

Being tested
R test, Nuubo, TECHNOMED pocket ECG, ZIO xt patch, MoMe

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ELR monitoringExperimentalSingle arm study. All participants with existing permanent dual chamber pacemakers will be monitored with 5 different Loop recorder devices for a 2 week period to assess there sensitivity and specificity in detecting AF burden. The devices used will be 1. R test 2. Nuubo 3. TECHNOMED pocket ECG 4. ZIO xt patch 5. MoMe
Receives: Device: R test; Device: Nuubo; Device: TECHNOMED pocket ECG; Device: ZIO xt patch; Device: MoMe

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity and specificity in detection of pacemaker detected AF burden in comparison to R-test

    Sensitivity and specificity of ZIO xt patch, MoMe, TECHNOMED pocket ECG AND Nuubo in detection of pacemaker detected AF burden in comparison to R-test.

    Sensitivity and sepcificity will be determined by the percentage of pacemaker detected AF episodes that have been detected by each ELR device.

    Measured: 14 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. proportion of pacemaker detected tachyarrhythmias detected in comparison to R-test

    Proportion of pacemaker detected tachyarrhythmias detected by the ZIO xt patch, MoMe, TECHNOMED pocket ECG and Nuubo in comparison to R-test

    Measured: 14 weeks

  2. Total wear time in comparison to R-test

    Total wear time of the ZIO xt patch, MoMe, TECHNOMED pocket ECG and Nuubo in comparison to R-test

    Measured: 14 weeks

  3. Proportion of symptomatic arrhythmias detected in comparison to R-test

    Proportion of symptoms secondary to arrhythmias detected by the ZIO xt patch, MoMe, TECHNOMED pocket ECG and Nuubo compared to R-Test

    Measured: 14 weeks

  4. Cost effectiveness in detection of arrhythmias in comparison to R-test

    Cost-effectiveness of ZIO xt patch, MoMe, TECHNOMED pocket ECG and Nuubo in detection of arrhythmia in comparison to R-Test

    Measured: 14 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing R test, Nuubo and TECHNOMED pocket ECG in people with Atrial Fibrillation, run by East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jul 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Shunmugam Ragunath Shunmugam, MBBS; MRCP (01323417400 ext. 4132, r.shunmugam@nhs.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sensitivity and specificity in detection of pacemaker detected AF burden in comparison to R-test (time frame: 14 weeks). 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 Jul 2015.
