Filter by:This prospective study aims to compare the diagnostic yield, or ability to detect an arrhythmia, of the traditional Holter monitor versus the novel Zio patch monitor in pediatric patients referred for ambulatory electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring. Children will wear both devices simultaneously for 48 hours and the incidence of clinically significant arrhythmias will be compared.
The study is a prospective, single arm, non-blinded, multi-site study conducted in mainland China.
This document is a clinical investigation plan (CIP) for the EnSite Precision Observational Study. This clinical study is intended to quantify and characterize the usage of the EnSite Precision™ Cardiac Mapping System (Software version 2.0.1 or higher) in a real-world environment. This study will be conducted in patients who are indicated for a cardiac electrophysiological (EP) mapping and radio frequency ablation procedure using a three-dimensional system.
To compare the efficacy and stability of an ICT-based centralized clinical trial monitoring system against the efficacy and stability of an existing outpatient-based electrocardiogram (ECG) and Holter monitoring system for arrhythmia detection after atrial fibrillation ablation, and to test whether such continuous monitoring can better detect arrhythmia that is undetectable by existing methods and how this may affect treatment outcomes
Abiraterone associated with prednisone is used in prostate cancer. Abiraterone is a selective small-molecule inhibiting cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17A1), a key enzyme in androgen synthesis. CYP17A inhibition is also responsible for mineral corticosteroid related adverse events as hypokaliemia, fluid retention, and hypertension. Primary hyperaldosteronism is associated with cardiovascular toxicities such as atrial fibrillation and cardiac failure. Other androgen-deprivation therapies are not associated with increased mineral corticosteroid level. This study investigates reports of cardiovascular toxicities for treatment including L02 (sex hormones used in treatment of neoplastic diseases), and G03 (sex hormones) used in prostate cancer in the French pharmacovigilance database and in the EudraCT database.
This study will examine the safety and efficacy of intramural needle ablation (INA) in the treatment of intramural ventricular arrhythmias in patients for whom standard RF ablation has been unsuccessful. The clinical team hypothesize that the increased current density and improved rates of transmural lesion creation seen with intramural needle ablation will lead to successful arrhythmia termination with minimal or no increased risk of complication.
The primary purpose of this pilot study will be feasibility of recruitment. However, in order to further inform a full randomised controlled trial (RCT), information on the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and other arrhythmias, hospital length of stay, resource use and morbidity will be collected.
The purpose of this observational registry is to collect clinical events and outcome data in 4 different study populations (cohorts), with a majority of Japanese subjects, that are at risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and heart failure (HF) events. These event rates will be compared with available published data mainly from Europe and the United States. Selected Subject Cohorts: 1. Selected subject cohort with criteria for SCD (without spontaneous prior ventricular sustained arrhythmia) and de novo Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) device treatment. 2. Selected subject cohort with criteria for SCD and widely accepted standard cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) indication who received a de novo CRT-Defibrillator (CRT-D) device treatment. 3. Selected subject cohort who are clinically expected to require >40% right ventricular pacing with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤50%, any determined New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class, and receiving pacemaker (PM) or CRT-Pacemaker (CRT-P) therapy despite previous device history (de novo, box changes, system revisions or upgrades). 4. Selected subject cohort with criteria for SCD fulfilling European Society of Cardiology (ESC) ICD or CRT-D therapy guidelines (2016) with an LVEF ≤35%, having 2 to 5 predefined SCD risk factors but do not have or had have a cardiac implanted defibrillator, CRT-D, PM, or CRT-P. The primary endpoint will report on the Composite rate of first appropriately treated ventricular arrhythmia (by anti-tachycardia pacing [ATP] or shock) or life-threatening symptoms associated to ventricular arrhythmia (defined as hemodynamic instability which requires treatment), whichever comes first under MADIT RIT Arm B or C programming conditions in a study population with a majority of Japanese subjects. This primary end point is assessed in the ICD/CRT-D implanted patient cohort. The all-cause mortality in subjects with a maximum of 3 risk factors (analyzed for MADIT II data) will be assessed in the Pacing (PM/CRT-P) patient cohort. The all-cause mortality will be assessed in the non-implanted subject cohort.
This study is intended to compare the feasibility, safety and efficacy of a zero-fluoroscopic approach with conventional fluoroscopic approach as performing catheter ablation of right atrial arrhythmias.
Twenty-one patients with insulin-treated type 2 diabetes with diabetic complications will be recruited to Part 1 of the study, a three-hour combined hyper- and hypoglycaemic clamp, along with a control group of twenty-one individuals with normal glucose tolerance matched for age, gender, and body mass index. Patients with type 2 diabetes will be scheduled for a three-week run-in period with LR and CGM prior to participation in Part 1. Only patients with a well-functioning loop-recorder and who can comply with CGM will be included. Patients with type 2 diabetes will continue in part 2 of the study, a one year observational study employing CGM and LR and clinical examination after 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months and an extended observation period of 2 years employing LR and clinical examination.
