About this study

Official title: Epicardial Versus Transvenous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators in Children

This observational study included all patients <18-year-old implanted with an Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) at Necker Hospital, Paris, France, from January 2003 to January 2021. Outcomes (ICD-related complications and reinterventions) were compared between epicardial and transvenous ICDs using Cox proportional hazard models.

Being tested
Implantable cardioverter defibrillator use

What participants receive

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

  • Implantable cardioverter defibrillator useDevice

    Implantation of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (epicardial or transvenous)

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator system dysfunction (lead dysfunction requiring reintervention)

    Number of patients in each group (epicardial and transvenous implantable cardioverter defibrillator) with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator dysfunction (dysfunction of at least one lead requiring reintervention) at the end of the follow-up

    Measured: up to 15 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Complications and Implantable Defibrillator User, run by Paris Cardiovascular Research Center (Inserm U970).

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 2 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 27 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Number of patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator system dysfunction (lead dysfunction requiring reintervention) (time frame: up to 15 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05349162, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Apr 2022.
