  • Ages 18 years and older

Study population: Participants are diagnosed with NYHA class II heart failure, class III heart failure or are indicated for an ICM with no history of heart failure.

Who may be able to join

  • Subject is 18 years or older
  • Willing and capable to provide written informed consent and agrees to participate in all protocol required activities
  • Subjects must meet one of the following criteria:
  • Documented New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II or III heart failure within the last 6 months
  • OR
  • Subjects that have a known heart condition (non-heart failure) and are at risk of developing an abnormal heart rhythm, or have symptoms that may suggest a cardiac arrhythmia such as dizziness, palpitations, syncope, chest pain and/or shortness of breath

Who cannot join

  • Not able to walk continuously for a period of 6 minutes at the subjects baseline walking speed
  • Prior hospitalization or surgery that affects the subjects baseline walking speed at time of enrollment
  • Cardiovascular event such as unstable angina or myocardial infarction that affects the subjects baseline walking speed at time of enrollment
  • Subject is currently enrolled in another clinical trial (excluding registries) that may interfere with the placement of the study system
  • Known allergy to materials used in the study (adhesive tape, titanium, ECG electrodes)
  • Subject is pregnant as indicated by subject report and/or medical record at the time of enrollment
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Subjects with rash or open wound on torso locations where investigational devices will be placed
  • Have an active implantable device
  • Any past or current medical event that could represent a risk for the subject to perform the study required activities in the opinion of the investigator
  • Any medical signs or symptoms that in the opinion of the investigator could represent a risk for the subject (I.e. increased baseline blood pressure or heart rate).

About this study

To understand the feasibility of characterizing walking patterns in heart failure subjects and subjects at risk for arrhythmias using an investigational wearable monitor called the SWAN study system.

Read the detailed description

This is a non-randomized, feasibility study that will enroll up to 60 participants diagnosed with Class II (30-35%) or III (30-35%) heart failure or are indicated for an insertable cardiac monitor with no history of heart failure (30-35%).

There will be one study visit per participant and a follow up phone call. The study visit includes device placement and data collection during rest and during a 6 minute hall walk. The device will then be removed.

What participants receive

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

  • Wearable Cardiac MonitorDevice

    Participants will be fitted with a wearable cardiac monitor placed on their skin that measures physiological signals.

What is being measured

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

  1. Step Detection

    Characterize step count in class II and III heart failure and in ICM indicated patients with no history of heart failure.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Walking Patterns

    Characterize walking patterns in class II and III heart failure and in ICM indicated patients with no history of heart failure.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure NYHA Class II and Heart Failure NYHA Class III, run by Boston Scientific Corporation 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 6 inclusion and 10 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Resourcing challenges). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Step Detection (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 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 13 Dec 2023.
