About this study

Official title: Edwards SAPIEN 3 PPI Registry - A Retrospective Survey and Prospective Identification of Procedure Related Variables Associated With Permanent Pacemaker Implantation in Patients Receiving an Edwards SAPIEN 3 Valve

There are patient related risk factors for PPI that can be identified and assessed in retrospective pooling of 1000+ TAVI patient datasets.

Retrospective pooling of 6 datasets already available at participating centres (4 sites in Germany, 1 in Zwolle / The Netherlands, 1 in Linköping / Sweden).

Additional assessment of calcifications using a CT data core lab. Statistical analysis of the obtained dataset with respect to the objectives of the registry.

Read the detailed description

Permanent pacemaker implantation is a widely recognized clinical event associated with TAVI becoming evident within a few days after the procedure.

While a number of registries have documented the rates of PPI with different valves, much less evidence has been provided for 1) patient based characteristics (e.g. RBBB etc.) affecting the likelihood of PPI and for 2) procedural variables (e.g. implantation depth, valve size etc.) that should be considered to perform an as safe and minimal invasive procedure as possible.

Prior research To date there are 7 published reports on pacemaker rates and predictors associated with the use of the Edwards SAPIEN 3 THV (see Table). These studies suggest that the need for pacemaker implantation in single centers ranges between 14.4 and 20.4% derived from patient numbers between 131 and 335. These analyses resulted in the identification of pre-existing conduction disturbance / aortic valve calcification as patient related and implantation depth /oversizing as procedure related variables associated with Edwards SAPIEN 3 THV TAVI. Furthermore a scoring algorithm for patient related factors has been proposed from a dataset of 240 patients to predict the likelihood of PPI after THV .

Limitations of prior research Current evidence though is limited by patient numbers versus event rates (with a max. of 62 PPI considered in any of the available datasets) resulting in a limited power in multivariable analyses, the single center design of these ventures, the lack of a consistent definition of variables potentially associated and the unexplained differences in the number and type of variables identified.

Aims For this reason the investigators consider it necessary to 1) to retrospectively pool data from all of these 7 datasets to arrive at a more comprehensive picture of patient related variables (retrospective part I), to 2) assess procedural variables in a prospective multicenter registry (prospective part II) and 3) to potentially validate the identified variables in a future prospective cohort.

What is being measured

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

  1. occurence of PPI after TAVI

    need for permanent pacemaker implantation after TAVI

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Timing of PPI

    Time interval after TAVI until PPI in days

    Measured: 30 days

  2. Indications for PPI

    possible reasons to implant a PP:

    • 1° AV block
    • complete RBBB
    • complete LBBB
    • QRS duration prolonged
    • LVOT calcium volume below the left and right cusp
    • etc

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aortic Valve Stenosis and AV Block, run by Institut für Pharmakologie und Präventive Medizin at 4 sites in Germany.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Germany. 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?

occurence of PPI after TAVI (time frame: 30 days). 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 NCT03497611, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 Sep 2020.
