Heart Failure and Risk of Re-Admissions Determined by Abnormal REVEAL Parameters (HF-RADAR)

January 4, 2013 updated by: Thomas Jefferson University

Phase 4 Registry Study Will Evaluate the Ability of Cardiac Rhythm (Cardiac Compass) Data to Predict Future Cardiac Events in Heart Failure (HF) Patients Recently Discharged After a Hospitalization for Heart Failure Who Have or Plan to Have a Implanted Loop Recorder (ILR), Specifically, the Reveal XT Device.

The purpose of the Heart Failure and Risk of re-Admissions Determined by Abnormal REVEAL Parameters (HF RADAR) study is to evaluate the ability of cardiac rhythm (Cardiac Compass) data to predict future cardiac events in heart failure (HF) patients recently discharged after a hospitalization for heart failure who have or plan to have a implanted loop recorder (ILR), specifically, the Reveal XT device. The study will enroll 40 HF patients (with LV function ≥ 40%) admitted to an acute care facility (observation status or hospital stay) for heart failure who either have a Reveal XT device in place or plan to have the ILR device inserted for clinical indication within 14 days of discharge from the hospitalization. HF patients will be followed for 6 months. Device date will be captured during normal clinic visits and at 6 months.

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

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

HF patients (with LV function ≥ 40%) admitted to an acute care facility (observation status or hospital stay) for heart failure who either have a Reveal XT device in place or plan to have the ILR device inserted for clinical indication within 14 days of discharge from the hospitalization.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Men and non-pregnant/non lactating women ≥ 18 years.
  2. Admission to hospital or observation unit for worsening heart failure.
  3. Has a Reveal XT device or has plans for a device implant for a clinical indication within 14 days of discharge.
  4. Ejection fraction ≥40% by echocardiogram within 6 months of enrollment
  5. Able to participate in the study for at least 6 months.
  6. Not currently enrolled in another study.
  7. Able to provide informed consent and complete scheduled study visits.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Has a clinical indication for a therapeutic cardiac device (pacemaker or defibrillator)
  2. History of permanent atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter.
  3. History of uncontrolled hypertension (high blood pressure)
  4. Has a previously implanted cardiac device (pacemaker or defibrillator) in place.
  5. Stage IV or V chronic renal dysfunction (estimated GFR <25 ml/min per 1.73 m2)
  6. End-stage (Stage D) HF, including chronic ionotropic drugs infusions or left ventricular assist device
  7. Waiting on the transplant list as an UNOS status 1A or 1B patient

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 1, 2011

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. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
