About this study

Official title: Outcomes of Functional Substrate Mapping of Ventricular Tachycardia (Func-VT) - an International Propensity-matched Prospective Registry

The goal of this registry database is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of functional ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation using SENSE protocol in patients with ischaemic VT. Mortality and the need for ICD therapies at 12 months post-ablation will be compared with propensity-matched controls undergoing substrate-based ablation alone.

Read the detailed description

This is an international multicentre prospective registry. Participating centres will collect data during the pre-assessment, procedure, and follow-up visits at 6 and 12 months, according to standard practice. It is anticipated that the enrolment duration will be approximately 12 months, with the data being matched with that collected from a control group of patients undergoing conventional Ventricular tachycardia ablation methods.

Medical subject headings
Tachycardia, Ventricular

What is being measured

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

  1. Composite of cardiovascular mortality and ICD therapy

    Composite of cardiovascular mortality and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Length of hospital stay

    Length of hospital stay

    Measured: 1 month

  2. Left ventricular function on echocardiogram

    Left ventricular function on echocardiogram

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ventricular Tachycardia, run by Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust at 8 sites in 4 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 8 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 12 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United Kingdom, Spain, United States, Greece. 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 Neil Srinivasan, MBBS (+(44)1268 524900 ext. 44100, neil.srinivasan2@nhs.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Composite of cardiovascular mortality and ICD therapy (time frame: 12 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 12 Jan 2024.
