Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate product performance of Magnetic Resonance (MR) Conditional Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices (CIED) following 3 tesla (3T) MRI exposure. This will be achieved by evaluating the changes in pacing capture threshold (PCT) measurements following 3T MRI scan exposure. This study is required by FDA as a condition of approval of 3T MRI compatible labeling of applicable CIED systems. This study is conducted within Medtronic's post-market surveillance platform, the Product Surveillance Registry (PSR).
The purpose of the study is to compare standard, single chamber transvenous ICD to sub-cutaneous ICD in occurrence of perioperative and long term device related complications and failed appropriate clinical shocks and arrhythmic death.
This study is a prospective, non-randomized, multi-center study of subjects implanted with an SJM pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), and cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) devices who are clinically indicated for a non-thoracic MRI scan.
Palpitations (noticeable pounding, fluttering or irregular heart beat) and pre-syncope (near blackout) are common ED problems sometimes due to an abnormal cardiac rhythm. This is difficult to diagnose as examination and electrocardiogram (ECG) are commonly normal and symptoms have usually resolved by the time the patient arrives in the ED. Diagnosing an abnormal heart rhythm as the cause of symptoms rests on capturing it on an ECG and patients are usually discharged with advice to return to the ED again for a 12-lead ECG should symptoms recur. The investigators will recruit 242 adult participants to either study or control arms. All study arm participants will be given an AliveCor Heart Monitor and trained in the use of the device. Control arm participants will receive standard care only. Both groups will be followed-up at 90 days. The investigators believe a smart phone based event recorder will allow better and earlier diagnosis in patients with a compatible smart phone or tablet, and revolutionise ED care in this area.
The purpose of this study is to assess the measurement conformity of an in vitro diagnostic device measuring the INR (International harmonized Ratio).
This study will evaluate the feasibility of visualization and characterization of arrhythmia ablation lesions by MRI immediately following standard ablation techniques. The appearance of the ablation lesion will be correlated with clinical outcomes and risk of arrhythmia recurrence.
The objective of this registry is to assess and characterize the use and performance of the EnSite Precision™ Cardiac Mapping System and the EnSite Precision™ Software V2.0 in a variety of electrophysiological (EP) procedures and clinical settings. This registry will assess the clinical performance of the system in a controlled, real-world environment after commercial release. Up to 500 subjects will be enrolled in up to 50 sites worldwide. Data will be collected at enrollment/baseline, procedure and pre-discharge. There is no long-term follow-up required for this registry. The anticipated registry enrollment is about 6-7 months.
Little is known about potential relationships between sleep apnea, plasma aldosterone and diastolic dysfunction which is a very frequent finding among patients requiring permanent cardiac pacing. Sleep apnea is often under diagnosed by clinical examination. Confirmation tests are expensive and access is limited. A specific algorithm available in a recent pacemaker allows assessing breathing variations using minute ventilation sensor, with a good agreement between the respiratory disturbance index and polysomnography results for the diagnosis of severe sleep apnea. The purpose of the study is to examine the diagnostic accuracy of a new pacemaker algorithm for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea in patients presenting with diastolic dysfunction. The investigators also aim to highlight a correlation between plasma aldosterone levels and the severity of sleep apnea, with a reversal effect of ventilation therapy in this specific population.
The Reveal LINQ Registry will generate reliable long-term "real world" data of product performance, economic valuation, site-of-service procedural information.
The purpose of this research study is to learn about arrhythmia detection in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). For several years patients with OSA have an increased likelihood of having irregular heartbeats. This study will determine how often patients with OSA have irregular heartbeats. This study will also define which OSA patients are most likely to have irregular heartbeats. The participant is being asked to be in the study because the participant has been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
