About this study

Official title: ASSURE WCD Clinical Evaluation - Detection and Safety Study (ACE-DETECT)

A prospective multicenter single arm open label study to evaluate ambulatory detection performance, arrhythmia detection and safety of the ASSURE™ Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator (WCD).

Read the detailed description

A prospective multicenter single arm open label study to evaluate ambulatory detection performance, arrhythmia detection and safety of the ASSURE™ Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator (WCD). A total of 130 adult subjects at risk for sudden cardiac arrest but otherwise protected by an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) will be enrolled at 10 clinical sites in the United States. Subjects will wear the device for approximately 30 days during normal daily activities including sleep. The WCD shock alarms and shock functionality will be disabled. Shock Alarm Event Markers are recorded by the WCD and will be used for analysis of the primary outcome measure. All episodes recorded by the ASSURE WCD and/or the subject's ICD will be reviewed by independent clinical experts.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ASSURE™ Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator (WCD) in people with Cardiac Arrest, Sudden, run by Kestra Medical Technologies, Inc. at 10 sites 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 4 inclusion and 13 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 12 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Oct 2023). 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?

WCD False Positive Alarm Rate (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 NCT03887052, 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 12 Mar 2024.
