Use of Transvenous Pacing Wire During Minimally Invasive Port Access Aortic Valve Surgery

November 15, 2021 updated by: Enrique Pantin, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey
The study is being done to determine if the Endovent pulmonary catheter kit, used for port access surgery, can be used as a passageway for a pacing wire. The study hypothesis is that the Endovent kit can be used effectively as a passageway for a pacing wire system.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Many times cardiac surgery requires the use of epicardial pacing in order to wean the patient from bypass. During minimally invasive port access valve surgery, it may not be possible to place the leads on the surface of the heart because of the limited surgical exposure. In this case, transvenous pacing is used. Minimally invasive port access surgery uses specially designed, FDA approved catheters for the procedure. We wish to review the effectiveness of being able to place the wires through the catheters and pace the patient.

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. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Aortic Valve Replacement
During surgery your doctor will utilize a new technique using surgical equipment that have already been FDA Approved for other indication. The combination of the equipment and technique will be experimental and will be closely evaluated during and after each case.
Procedure: Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve
Patients having minimally invasive aortic valve surgery will have a pacing wire placed through the endovent catheter. The anesthesiologist will attempt to pace the ventricle with this wire if needed to wean from bypass.
Procedure: Minimally Invasive Aortic Valve Surgery
The Anesthesiologist will advance a pacing wire through the Endovent Catheter under TEE in order to pace the heart when the subject is coming off the Cardiopulmonary bypass machine
Other Names:
  • AVR, Mini AVR, Minimally invasive Port Access Surgery
Device: Manipulation in OR surgical technique
Endovent and pacing wire when coming off cardiopulmonary bypass

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants Were the Endovent Pacing Wire Were Able to Obtain a Ventricular Sensing Signal
Time Frame: Preparing to wean from the cardiopulmonary bypass machine (heart lung machine) until 40 hours post wean.
Heart to begin pacing upon passing the wire through the catheter to the heart. The catheter would be to be able to pace the heart, with 5 or less milliamps, post heart surgery
Preparing to wean from the cardiopulmonary bypass machine (heart lung machine) until 40 hours post wean.
Number of Participants That Required Pacing Who Were Able to be Paced
Time Frame: Preparing to wean from the cardiopulmonary bypass machine (heart lung machine) until 40 hours post wean.
To be able to pace the heart post aortic valve replacement surgery
Preparing to wean from the cardiopulmonary bypass machine (heart lung machine) until 40 hours post wean.

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants Who Developed Abnormal Blood Pressure or Heart, and/or Arrhythmias Potentially Related to the Pacing Endovent
Time Frame: Preparing to wean from the cardiopulmonary bypass machine (heart lung machine) until 40 hours post wean.
Subjects hemodynamic status will be measured and assessed throughout the study including all vital signs
Preparing to wean from the cardiopulmonary bypass machine (heart lung machine) until 40 hours post wean.
