Ventricular Arrhythmias Incidence According to Sleep Apnea Syndrome in Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) Patients

June 30, 2008 updated by: LivaNova

Ventricular Arrhythmias Incidence According to Sleep Apnea Syndrome in ICD Patients

The purpose of this study is to report the incidence of ventricular arrhythmias correlated to the SAS and to focus on the interest of diagnosing Sleep-disorders breathing in ICD patients. This diagnosis will be assessed by an ambulatory nasal pressure recording with portable multi-channel recorder associated to a complete SAS related symptoms questionnaire.This clinical trial will be the first step to gather information about the suspected sleep relation between ventricular arrhythmias and Sleep breathing disorders, in order to improve the management and treatment of such arrhythmias in next generation of defibrillators which will integrate a minute ventilation sensor able to monitor breathing.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who are at risk of sudden death due to ventricular arrhythmia and who satisfy at least one of the following criteria are eligible for enrolment:

  • Class I indications for ICD

    • Survival of at least one episode of cardiac arrest due to VT or VF not due to a transient or reversible cause, or presumed to be due to VF when electrophysiological testing is precluded by other medical conditions; or
    • Spontaneous sustained ventricular tachycardia, or
    • Syncope of undetermined origin with clinically relevant haemodynamically significant sustained VT or VF induced at electrophysiological study when drug therapy is ineffective, not tolerated or not preferred, or

  • Class IIa Indication for ICD

    • Non-sustained VT with coronary disease, prior myocardial infarction, left ventricular dysfunction (≤ 40%) and inducible VF or sustained VT at electrophysiological study.
    • With prior myocardial infarction and LVEF less than 30 % (without prior life-threatening arrhythmia or sustained VT).
  • Patients candidate for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) need to be in functional Class III or IV of the NYHA classification.

Patients will be included only after having granted their informed consent to participate in the study, preceded by the delivery of appropriate information

  • Implanted pacemaker that is not going to be explanted or otherwise disabled;
  • Inability or refusal to provided informed consent

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
The primary objective of this study is to assess the correlation between ventricular arrhythmias and Sleep apnoea syndrome in ICD patients during a 12-month follow-up.
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
To determine the number of arrhythmias in the morning (between 06:00 and 12:00 AM). The circadian distribution of global arrhythmias will be presented.
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
To report and compare the number of hospitalizations, mortality, and morbidity according to Respiratory Disturbance Index (RDI).
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months
To evaluate the incidence of adverse events in the studied population: device-related adverse events with an actual or potential effect on the patient, serious adverse events not related to the device, mortality, and unanticipated adverse device effects
Time Frame: 12 months
12 months

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure.
