About this study

Official title: The Efficacy and Safety of Internal Defibrillation: Evaluation of the iD-System™, One-Handed Disposable Internal Defibrillation System

The main aim is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the iD-System™, One-handed Disposable Internal Defibrillation System The device is made for manual defibrillation during intra-thoracic procedure, by transferring a shock from a defibrillation device to the patient's heart, in combination with the iD-Electrode. The device will be used when the patient reaches a stage of ventricular fibrillation or rapid ventricular tachycardia during cardiac surgery.

The main aim is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the iD-System™, One-handed Disposable Internal Defibrillation System The device is made for manual defibrillation during intra-thoracic procedure, by transferring a shock from a defibrillation device to the patient's heart, in combination with the iD-Electrode. The device will be used when the patient reaches a stage of ventricular fibrillation or rapid ventricular tachycardia during cardiac surgery.

In case ventricular fibrillation occurs and the iD-system is not effective to restore the sinus trythm, the conventional approach with use of the two paddels spoons will be performed immediately.

the following will be assessed:

  • Ease of use of the device
  • Safety of the device
  • Efficacy of the device

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Internal defibrillation during cardiac surgery, using the iD-systemProcedure or surgery

    When ventricular fibrillation of ventricular tachycardia occurs during surgery, the iD-Paddle will be applied directly to the heart. A maximum of 4 shocks are delivered to the heart to restore normal sinus rhythm. If 4 shocks are not successful standard operating procedure will be enable conform hospital protocol.

Patients with cardiac surgeryExperimentalAll patients undergoing cardiac surgery at the Ziekenhuis Oost-Limburg, meeting all inclusion and no exclusion criteria, are asked to participate in the investigation.
Receives: Procedure: Internal defibrillation during cardiac surgery, using the iD-system

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Patients With Skin Symptoms

    Safety of the iD-system will be evaluated to assess if there are skin symptoms to the electrode by confirming if irritation is visible on the back of the patient after removal of the iD elektrode or not. For the more subjects the irritation will be visible, the worse will be the safety of the iD-elektrode.

    Measured: During intra-thoracic procedure

  2. Number of Patients With Increased Troponin-t Level Classified as Adverse Event

    Safety of the iD-system will be evaluated via troponine measurement to assess myocardial injury. Troponine will be measured at 4, 8, 16, 24 and 36 hours post-surgery and will be reported in ng/L. A significant increase of the troponine value during these different time points indicates myocardial injury. The investigator will evaluate every case to assess if it is an Adverse Event or not.

    Measured: During intra-thoracic procedure till 36 hours post surgery

  3. Number of Patients Where the iD-System TM Fails

    Efficacy of the the iD-System will be evaluated to assess a successful restoration of the sinus rythm by counting the number of failed attempts to defibrillate which were attributable to device malfunction. This will be captured by a questionnaire, to be completed by the investigator after the surgery. A maximum of 4 shocks can be applied. If the normal arterial hearth rhythm cannot be restored after 4 shocks with the iD-System, conversion to the conventional system occurs.

    Measured: During intra-thoracic procedure

  4. Ease of Use of the iD-System as Assessed Via Investigator Questionnaire

    Ease of use of the iD-System will be evaluated by a questionnaire, to be completed after the procedure. The following items will be assessed:

    • adherence of the iD-Electrode to the patient's back
    • positioning of the iD-Padde for maximal contact with the heart
    • working length of the following cables: iD-Electrode,iD-Paddle and the iD-SMART Cable

    The questionnaire will consist of 16 questions, each addressing a specific topic of the ease of use, to be scored by the investigator from 1 to 5.

    1= very poor, 2= poor, 3= neutral, 4= sufficient, 5= excellent

    The higher the total score, the better the outcome of the 'ease of use' evaluation.

    Measured: During intra-thoracic procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Internal defibrillation during cardiac surgery, using the iD-system in people with Ventricular Fibrillation and Ventricular Tachycardia, run by SMART Clinical Products BV at 1 site in Belgium.

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 8 inclusion and 2 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 2 Feb 2021. 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 Belgium. 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 2 Feb 2021). 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?

Number of Patients With Skin Symptoms (time frame: During intra-thoracic procedure). 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 2 Feb 2021.
