Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the INSPIRE-ELR study is to characterize arrhythmias in post MI low EF (≤35%) patients in the acute phase (at discharge from hospital after index MI) and chronic phase (at 8-10 weeks after index MI) and to correlate with patients at high risk of all-cause mortality or sudden cardiac death (SCD) at 1 year.


Description:

The study is a prospective, multi-center, interventional, non-randomized study enrolling post MI low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≤35%) patients prior to or at discharge from the hospital after index MI as defined in the inclusion criteria. Prior to initiating any study specific procedures, patients needs to provide his/her consent by signing and dating an informed consent form. Inclusion/Exclusion criteria will be evaluated and the patients' medical history and baseline information will be collected. Seven days ELR monitoring will be done at discharge and at chronic phase after index MI. At 6 and 9 months telephone follow-up will be done to evaluate the health status, if there will be no in-office visit planned. At 12 months there will be a scheduled in-office visit conducted to collect the health status. All the patients will be followed-up by telephone (health status) at study end (when the last patient completed the 12 month follow-up)

- Acute Myocardial Infarction (STEMI or non-STEMI) documented within 10 days of onset, matching one of the following criteria:

- Acute ST segment elevation greater than or equal to 0.1 mv on ECG in 2 or more leads or new LBBB, with symptoms of ischemia

- In all other situations, including non ST segment elevation MI, at least one cardiac biomarker value [preferably cardiac troponin (cTn)] above the 99th percentile of a normal reference population (upper reference limit (URL)) AND with at least one of the following (1) new or presumed new ST-T changes (2) Symptoms or signs of Ischemia (3) Development of pathological Q waves in the ECG (4) Identification of an intracoronary thrombus by angiography

- Age less than 18 years

- Psychologically incapacitated

- Patient is pregnant, or is expecting to become pregnant during the course of the trial per Investigator discretion.

- Patients contraindicated for NUVANT system

- Comorbidities likely to limit survival to less than the minimal study duration (12 months)

- Participation in an investigational study with known or suspected cardiac effect expected to confound the results of this study (e.g. stem cell trials, stent trials, cardiac intervention trials, drug trials)

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary The Primary Objective of the Study is to Assess Percent of Participants With Clinically Significant Arrhythmias on ELR Post MI Post MI mortality is higher in India than in the US and Western Europe. The hypothesis of the INSPIRE-ELR study was that occurrence of arrhythmias in the acute phase of MI will identify patients at highest risk and we evaluated the percentage clinical signification arrhythmias captured through the ELR post MI in acute phase 7 days post discharge
Secondary Determine Percentage of Patients With Non-lethal Arrhythmias on ELR Post MI Have a Higher Risk of All-cause Mortality at 1 Year Analysis included all patients that completed the acute monitoring period. Based on the arrhythmias detected during the acute ELR monitoring period, patients were classified as "with arrhythmia" when during the ELR monitoring period there is any episode of ELR monitored events listed. All other patients are classified "without arrhythmia". Mortality rates after the monitoring period was estimated for both groups. 12 Months
