Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: All patients participated at our Cardiac Rhythm Device Management (CRDM) clinic at Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai hospital, Faculty of medicine, Chiang Mai University will be invited. And at least 100 consecutive patients to be equally enrolled in both pacemakers(including single chamber, dual chamber and Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy pacemaker-CRTP) and Automatic Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (AICD) (including single chamber, dual chamber and Bi-ventricular AICD or CRTD)

Who may be able to join

  • Age more than 18 years old
  • Able to give informed consent
  • Implanted with functioning pacemakers or AICD more than 3 months
  • Adequate and stable all device parameters
  • Able to operate self triggering event recorders (at least 30 seconds)

Who cannot join

  • Patient with single chamber (Atrial) pacemaker (AAI or AAIR)
  • Presence of unstable hemodynamic or conditions
  • Presence of sustained or ongoing arrhythmia, besides atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter in single (ventricle) chamber device or Atrio-ventricular block
  • Documented of over-sensing episodes under regular sensitivity threshold (0.25 mV or more in the atrial channel and 0.75 mV or more in the ventricular channel, for permanent pacemaker device, and manufacture default setting in Automatic Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator, AICD)
  • Lack of noise oversensing detection/trigger and Electrogram (EGM) storage capability
  • Lack of tachyarrhythmia detection and episode storage capability

About this study

Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic device (CIED) is a evolution therapy and number of patients with it are growing rapidly. Electromagnetic interference causing device malfunction is not uncommon, Radiofrequency Identification system is among its plausible source. Patients with CIEDs are at risk of exposure to this novel product in their daily living especially automobile keyless access system. Only informal studies have been conducted and not be published. Formal and systemic evaluation and tests are crucial.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of any Electromagnetic interference

    Measured: Immediately after completion of the protocol test

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Incidence of pacing inhibition in ventricular channel

    Measured: Immediately after completion of the protocol test

  2. Incidence of noise reversion

    Measured: Immediately after completion of the protocol test

  3. Incidence of ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation detection

    Measured: Immediately after completion of the protocol test

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Electromagnetic Interference in Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Device, run by Chiang Mai University.

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 6 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 10 Jan 2017. 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?

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?

Incidence of any Electromagnetic interference (time frame: Immediately after completion of the protocol test). 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 NCT03016390, 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 10 Jan 2017.
