About this study

This is a retrospective study of our patient population implanted with the Medtronic's Leadless single-chamber ventricular pacemakers.

Read the detailed description

This protocol outlines the methods on the Micra Pacemaker. The Micra Transcatheter Pacemaker System is a miniaturized single chamber pacemaker system that is delivered via catheter through the femoral vein and is implanted directly inside the right ventricle of the heart. The Micra device eliminates the need for a device pocket and insertion of a pacing lead, thereby eliminating lead and pocket related complications associated with traditional pacing systems while providing similar pacing benefits. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the Micra system on April 6, 2016, for the following conditions:

  • symptomatic paroxysmal or permanent high-grade atrioventricular block (AV) in the presence of atrial fibrillation (AF)
  • symptomatic paroxysmal or permanent high-grade AV block in the absence of AF, as an alternative to dual chamber pacing, when atrial lead placement is considered difficult, high risk, or not deemed necessary for effective therapy
  • symptomatic bradycardia-tachycardia syndrome or sinus node dysfunction (sinus bradycardia or sinus pauses), as an alternative to atrial or dual chamber pacing, when atrial lead placement is considered difficult, high risk, or not deemed necessary for effective therapy The FDA approved the Micra system on the basis of clinical trial evidence from the Micra Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) study (NCT02488681).

On January 18, 2017, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a final National Coverage Determination (NCD) on leadless pacemakers, providing for coverage with Coverage with Evidence Development (CED) of approved leadless pacemakers for approved indications (CAG-00448N). The NCD requires the research study conducted as part of CED to address the following research questions:

  1. What are the peri-procedural and post-procedural complications of leadless pacemakers?
  2. What are the long-term outcomes of leadless pacemakers?
  3. What are the effects of patient characteristics (age, gender, comorbidities) on the use and health effects of leadless pacemakers?

In addition, CMS outlined six evidentiary gaps in the final NCD for leadless pacemakers:

  1. What are the peri-procedural and post-procedural complications, and long term outcomes of leadless pacemakers?
  2. Are leadless pacemakers equivalent or superior to conventional pacemaker's in general clinical practice?
  3. What are the infection rates, the long-term hemodynamic effects, and the rates of formation of thrombi?
  4. What are the patient demographics and effects of patient characteristics (age, gender, comorbidities) on the use and health effects of leadless pacemakers?
  5. What are the device-related issues (handling of end of battery life; effects of having multiple leadless pacemakers implanted; rate of device dislodgement; and the possibility of device extractions)?
  6. How are operators and facility characteristics related to peri-procedural and post-procedural complications?

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pacemaker, run by Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian 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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2023. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Leila Andres, MS (949-764-4510, clinicalresearch@hoag.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complication Rate (time frame: 2 years). 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 28 Feb 2023.
