Unpinning Termination Therapy for VT/VF

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

This study is intended to develop a better method for stopping potentially lethal heart rhythms than currently available defibrillators. This new method, called Unpinning Termination Therapy (UPT), is hypothesized to be effective in stopping these dangerous heart rhythms at lower voltages and energy than current defibrillators. Consequently, UPT may improve survival, reduce patient pain from shocks, and lead to longer lasting and smaller implantable defibrillators.

Clinical Trial Description

A prospective single-arm feasibility study involving acute testing of UPT electrotherapy in subjects with VT/VF during clinically indicated ventricular tachycardia catheter ablation procedure or indicated implantable cardioverter defibrillator implant, upgrade, or replacement or new CRT-D implant or upgrade to CRT-D. The study involves up to two roll in subjects at each participating site followed by an UPT evaluation and refinement segment in which remaining subjects are enrolled until arrhythmia terminations from UPT delivery are reliably achieved. A prospective evaluation segment will be performed to compare UPT against SBS and ATP if sufficient subjects remain once reliable terminations from UPT are achieved. Subjects will be evaluated at the visits for the Clinically-Indicated Procedure per standard of care. A single follow-up at up to 30 days post-procedure is required to assess subjects for adverse events. ;
