Clinical Trial Summary

500 Patients (minimum) will be enrolled following commercial implant. Will be treated by their physicians using the standard of care. Standard of care for the Guardian includes an in-office initial programming visit 7-14 days following implant and every 6 months.


Description:

The purpose of this prospective, non-randomized, single arm, event-based, multicenter trial is to assess: (1) the diagnostic accuracy of the device, (2) the compliance of the prescribing physician, (3) the experience of the implanting physician, (4) the experience of the emergency department physician and (5) the patient compliance for "Emergency" and "See Doctor" alerts. The adequacy of the training program for the prescribing physician, implanting physician, emergency department physician, and patients will be assessed. A minimum of 500 patients who have had prior ACS events and who remain at high risk for recurrent ACS events will be enrolled in the PAS, for the purpose of accruing 314 adjudicated True Positive (TP) or False Positive (FP) ACS events. These ACS events will contribute to the Positive Predictive Value (PPV) and false positive rate (FPR) endpoints of the study. The PAS will be completed once the 314 ACS events have been collected and adjudicated.

Has already undergone coronary angiography and revascularization, unless the physician determines it is appropriate to implant before or during the planned procedure. 4. Lives in a geographic area in close proximity (within approximately 60 minutes by EMS) to any hospital that can treat AMI. 5. Subjects (men or women) at least 21 years of age.

Use of effective contraceptive method Exclusion Criteria: - 1. In the investigator's opinion, subject lacks ability to respond appropriately to alarms, e.g., illiteracy, poor memory or cognitive function, dementia or other condition affecting memory function, etc. 2. There is known compromised tissue at the site of lead implantation in the apex of the right ventricle, e.g., prior infarct affecting the RV apex location. 3. A permanent pacemaker or ICD is already in place or the subject is indicated for ICD or pacemaker implantation based on the guidelines published by the American College of Cardiology as Class I and IIa recommendations. Class IIb recommendations are at the investigator's discretion. 4. Subject cannot feel the IMD vibration when placed on top of the skin on the left pectoral side of the chest. 5. Subject has recurrent or persistent atrial fibrillation. 6. Subject has recurrent or persistent non-sinus cardiac rhythm, second or third degree atrioventricular blocks, QRS duration greater than 120 ms, Benign Early Repolarization (BER), Brugada Syndrome (LLB, BBB, RBB) or Rate Induced BBB. 7. Subject has left ventricular hypertrophy evidenced by EKG criteria. 8. Subject has any condition preventing the subcutaneous implantation of the GuardianĀ® System in a left pectoral pouch, such as: superior vena cava thrombosis, subcutaneous tissue deemed inappropriate for the procedure or prior central venous access via portacath, Hickman, Groshong, or similar placed in a left pectoral location or left side PICC line. 9. Subject has extremely heavy alcohol consumption (participates in binge drinking that leads to alcohol intoxication) or has history of alcohol or illicit drug abuse within past 5 years. 10. There is evidence of unresolved infection (fever > 38o C and/or leukocytosis > 15,000). 11. Subject has history of bleeding disorders or severe coagulopathy (platelets < 100,000 plts/ml; APTT or PT > 1.3 x reference range). 12. Subject has had a hemorrhagic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) in the past 6 months. 13. Subject has a potentially fatal disease, such as cancer or refractory congestive heart failure, associated with limitation of life expectancy, which may lead to inadequate compliance to the protocol or confusing data interpretation. 14. Subject has clinical conditions such as heart diseases, difficult-to-control blood pressure, difficult-to-control insulin-dependent diabetes or serious prior infections attributed to the diabetes, or others that, at the investigator's discretion, could seriously affect the subject's current clinical condition during study procedures. 15. Subject has previously been implanted with an AngelMed GuardianĀ® System, current participation or previous participation in another drug or device study in the past 30 days that conflicts with this study as determined by the study sponsor. 16. Subject has experienced gastro-intestinal hemorrhage in the past 6 months. 17. Subject has any situation in which the use of aspirin is contraindicated for at least 6 months. 18. Subject has epilepsy. 19. Subject has known severe allergies, e.g., peanut, bee sting, etc. 20. Subject has a known coronary occlusion that cannot be reperfused e.g. known multiple small vessel disease, saphenous vein graft, prior angiography where doctor could not intervene, or jailed occlusion.

Intervention

Device:
PMA P150009 AngelMed Guardian® System
The AngelMed Guardian® System is an implantable cardiac monitor with patient alerting capability and an additional external alarm device. The Guardian® System is indicated for use in patients who have had prior ACS events and who remain at high risk for recurrent ACS events. The Guardian® System is indicated as an adjunct to patient recognized symptoms. The Guardian® System detects potential ongoing ACS events, characterized by sustained ST segment changes, and alerts the patient to seek medical attention for those potential ACS events. A Guardian® System alert is a more accurate predictor of ACS events when compared to patient recognized symptoms alone and demonstrates a reduced rate over time of patient presentations without ACS events (false positives) when compared to patient recognized symptoms alone. In the absence of symptoms, the Guardian® System may identify asymptomatic ACS events and prompt the patient to seek medical attention.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Efficacy (PPV and FPR) This study is a post approval study aiming to gather data from FDA approved and standard of care implants using the proprietary medical device created by Angel Medical Systems, The Guardian. The study is collecting specific information from the subjects, devices and index procedure to demonstrate non-inferior performance of a now FDA approved product in a commercial setting. The diagnostic accuracy of the device will be assessed by comparing the Positive Predictive Value (PPV) and the False Positive Rate (FPR) results in the PAS to the results for the same endpoints in the ALARMS-ON group in the PMA-Amendment (i.e. including patients who both had the device implanted and alarms turned on). The hypotheses will be assessed with performance goals for both PPV and FPR. The PAS is a 3 year, event based study, looking to accumulate 314 ACS events. Patients will be seen for an in-office initial programming visit 7-14 days following implant and every 6 months thereafter until study exit or study completion.
Secondary Adequacy of Training Programs for Study Team and Patients Instances where the device is prescribed/implanted for patients that don't meet proper labeling criteria. Instances of system revisions, any system problem that requires invasive corrective procedures to resolve, required within 6mo. of implant. Instances of "Emergency" alarm non-compliance, failure to report to the ER within 72 hours of the alarm. Instances of "See Doctor" noncompliance, defined as failure to present to doctor within 2 weeks of alarm or reporting to ER instead of to doctor in response to alarm. Instances of patient non-success to reconfirm ability to distinguish between "Emergency" and "See Doctor," defined by being able to report the proper actions to take for each and what to do when only symptoms occur in the absence of an alarm. Instances of percutaneous intervention without at least one positive standard of care test reported on a site-based and visit-based basis. The PAS is a 3 year, event based study, looking to accumulate 314 ACS events. Patients will be seen for an in-office initial programming visit 7-14 days following implant and every 6 months thereafter until study exit or study completion.
