Trial summary

Smart phone-based applications to identify cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are extremely useful in circumstances where urgent device interrogation is needed and device identification card is not available. Few studies have provided insight regarding the utility of these applications. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparing Sensitivity and Specificity of Pacemaker ID Application and Cardiac Rhythm Management Device-Finder Application in Identifying Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device Manufacturer Using Chest Radiograph - an Observational Study.

Smart phone-based applications to identify cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are extremely useful in circumstances where urgent device interrogation is needed and device identification card is not available. Few studies have provided insight regarding the utility of these applications. We have studied two widely available applications i.e., Pacemaker ID app (PMIDa) or Cardiac Rhythm Management Devices-Finder (CRMD-f) to identiy device manufacturers in CIEDs.

Smart phone-based applications to identify cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are extremely useful in circumstances where urgent device interrogation is needed and device identification card is not available. Few studies have provided insight regarding the utility of these applications. We have studied two widely available applications i.e., Pacemaker ID app (PMIDa) or Cardiac Rhythm Management Devices-Finder (CRMD-f) to identiy device manufacturers in CIEDs.

547 patients who underwent CIED implantation from year 2016 - 2020 in our institute were enrolled. There were 438 Medtronic and 109 St. Jude's devices. All chest radiographs were de-identified and resized into 225*225 pixels focusing on the CIED. PMIDa and CRMD-f applications were used to identify CIED. Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value for both applications were calculated and compared.

What is being measured

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

  1. Accuracy sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value for both Pacemaker ID app and CRMD finder app.

    Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value for both Pacemaker ID app and CRMD finder app. Above mentioned values shall be calculated after analysing data in SPSS and doing cross tabulation. Values will be in percentages.

    Measured: Upto 6 months of enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac Arrhythmia, run by Aga Khan University Hospital, Pakistan at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 12 Jul 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 Pakistan. 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?

Accuracy sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value for both Pacemaker ID app and CRMD finder app. (time frame: Upto 6 months of enrollment). 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 12 Jul 2021.
