About this study

Hypothesis:

Patients that were previously discharged from the emergency department with a subsequent non-diagnostic 30 day external patch monitor for suspected arrhythmia will benefit from early Reveal LINQ™ Insertable Cardiac Monitoring System placement.

Primary Study Objectives:

To evaluate the outcome of an intensive monitoring strategy (patients with a negative 30 day SEEQ™ Mobile Cardiac Telemetry (MCT) System result are purposed over for a Reveal LINQ™ Insertable Cardiac Monitoring System) in patients with suspected but no previously documented arrhythmias that result in a clinically actionable event.

Read the detailed description

Eligible patients will be enrolled after presentation to the Emergency Department of St. Elizabeth Healthcare with symptoms suggestive of cardiac arrhythmia and prior to leaving the emergency department. Patients will be exited from the study and considered complete at the identification of a cardiac arrhythmia as defined in the protocol (endpoint), or 12 months from enrollment date, whichever occurs first.

Protocol defined endpoints

  1. Planned insertion of a permanent pacemaker, implantable cardiac defibrillator or chronic resynchronization device.
  2. Planned cardiac ablation procedure.
  3. Initiation of medical therapy for the purpose of treating dysrhythmia.
  4. Diagnosis of arrhythmia not requiring medical or invasive arrhythmia management.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of subjects in which a cardiac arrhythmia is detected from the study intervention of an intensive monitoring strategy.

    The number of subjects in which any cardiac arrhythmia that results in a clinically actionable event will be recorded. Descriptive statistics will be used to describe baseline study subject characteristics and the clinically actionable findings.

    Measured: 12 months or less

  2. The total number of all significant arrhythmias detected in the study population.

    To determine the total number of all significant arrhythmias detected in the study population with the SEEQ™ Mobile Cardiac Telemetry (MCT) System and/or the implantable Reveal LINQ™ Insertable Cardiac Monitoring System. Subjects completing each phase of the intervention will be expressed as a percentage, as well as the percent of subjects with negative findings at the end of study participation.

    Measured: 12 months or less

  3. The average time, in days, to diagnosis of significant arrhythmia using the intervention of intensive monitoring.

    Compute the average time, in days, to diagnosis of significant arrhythmia using the intensive strategy of monitoring subjects with the SEEQ™ Mobile Cardiac Telemetry (MCT) System and the Reveal LINQ™ Insertable cardiac monitor.

    Measured: 12 months or less

  4. Identify and categorize arrhythmia subtypes using the intensive monitoring strategy.

    Of those subjects with clinical findings, identify the action required, and categorize outcome as desirable, undesirable, or inconclusive.

    Measured: 12 months or less

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluate if the intensive monitoring strategy causes a reduction in the number and overall expense of ancillary diagnostic testing used to aid in the detection of suspected cardiac arrhythmias.

    In subjects with recurrent symptom, compare the intensive strategy to the number of prior tests that have been performed. In subject who have previously presented with symptoms and undergone prior diagnostic evaluation, estimate the total expense of all prior evaluation and diagnostic testing performed.

    Measured: 12 months or less

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intensive Monitoring Strategy: Reveal LINQ™ Insertable Cardiac Monitoring System". in people with Suspected Arrhythmia, run by St Elizabeth Healthcare 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 5 inclusion and 14 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 9 Oct 2019. 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?

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?

Number of subjects in which a cardiac arrhythmia is detected from the study intervention of an intensive monitoring strategy. (time frame: 12 months or less). The study lists 4 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 9 Oct 2019.
