Corrected Left Ventricular Electrical Delay Predicting Response to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

April 27, 2017 updated by: Jingfeng Wang, Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University

A Prospective Clinical Trial of Corrected Left Ventricular Electrical Delay Predicting Response to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Chinese With Heart Failure

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a well-established treatment for patients with severe systolic heart failure (HF) and ventricular desynchronization. Despite the consistently observed structural and functional improvements as well as reductions in HF events and mortality in large multicenter randomized trials, 30% patients remain classified as nonresponders. Present evidences showed that QRS duration was the most effective parameter to predict responsivity of CRT in patients with severe HF. But some studies showed that QRS duration could be influenced by obesity and gender. Accordingly, the simple QRS interval width of body surface electrocardiograph should not be the most satisfactory parameter for screening patients suitable for CRT. Recent study showed that left ventricular electrical delay, as measured by the time from the onset of QRS to the LV electrogram peak (QLV), predicted CRT response. At long QLV intervals, atrioventricular optimization (AVO) can increase the likelihood of structural response to CRT. However, it is unclear whether it is suitable for Chinese patients. The investigators would like to validate this relation in a Chinese population and explore if a corrected QLV might do better to predict the responsivity of CRT.

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 to 75 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Left Ventricular End Systolic Volume (LVESV)
Time Frame: baseline and 6 months
change in LVESV
baseline and 6 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.
