Trial summary

Permanent pacemaker implantation is one of the most common arrhythmological procedure. This procedure is usually accompanied by a minimum of 2-3 days hospitalization, with immobilization of patients (supine) for 16-24 hours. The optimal duration of patient´s immobilization is not determined. Read more about this study

About this study

Permanent pacemaker implantation is one of the most common arrhythmological procedure. This procedure is usually accompanied by a minimum of 2-3 days hospitalization, with immobilization of patients (supine) for 16-24 hours. The optimal duration of patient´s immobilization is not determined. There is also no recommendation from individual manufacturers of pacemakers for the duration of immobilization after pacemaker implantation. The length of immobilization is based rather on the tradition established at the time of using electrodes with passive fixation. The aim of our prospective, randomized study (EMAPI) is to compare the safety of short-term (4-hours) immobilization with long-term (16-24 hours) immobilization after primary pacemaker implantation. Septal position will be used for right ventricular electrode.

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite endpoint of incidence of adverse events from secondary outcomes depending on the length of immobilization (early vs. late).

    Comparsion of incidence of dislodgement of atrial electrode, dislodgement of ventricular electrode in septal position, hematoma surgically treated or requiring blood transfusions, pneumothorax, pocket infection, others complications

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Incidence of atrial lead dislodgement.

    comparsion of early vs. late mobilization

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Incidence of ventricular lead dislodgement.

    comparsion of early vs. late mobilization

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Incidence of hematoma (surgically treated or requiring blood transfusions.)

    comparsion of early vs. late mobilization

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Incidence of pneumothorax.

    comparsion of early vs. late mobilization

    Measured: 24 hours

  5. Incidence of pocket infection.

    comparsion of early vs. late mobilization

    Measured: 6 months

  6. Incidence of others complications.

    comparsion of early vs. late mobilization, (mechanical, extracardiac complication etc.)

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pacemaker implantation in people with Pacemaker Complication and Mobilization, run by Charles University, Czech Republic at 1 site in Czechia.

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 5 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 15 Oct 2024. 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 Czechia. 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?

Composite endpoint of incidence of adverse events from secondary outcomes depending on the length of immobilization (early vs. late). (time frame: 6 months). 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 15 Oct 2024.
