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

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

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

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patient that is scheduled to undergo surgery requiring midline sternotomy or implantation of a commercially-available TV-ICD or S-ICD system per local guidelines
  2. Patient must be at least 18 years of age
  3. Subject must provide written informed consent prior to any clinical investigation-related procedure.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Pacemaker dependency
  2. Chronically implanted cardiac implantable electronic device or other device which delivers an electrical current
  3. Currently taking amiodarone or a Class IC antiarrhythmic drug
  4. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

  12. Chronic renal insufficiency including patients on dialysis
  13. Subject is currently participating in another clinical investigation.
  14. Pregnant or nursing subjects and those who plan pregnancy during the clinical investigation follow-up period.
  15.

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: Configuration A first
Subjects receive the test of Configuration A first and Configuration B second.
Procedure: Temporary implantation of defibrillation coils and pulse generator
Each subject will undergo temporary implantation of defibrillation coils and pulse generator according to the NV-ICD electrode configurations.
Procedure: Defibrillation following induction of VA (Configuration A first)
Ventricular arrhythmia (VA) will be induced via an EP catheter placed in the right ventricle. After VA is confirmed, a defibrillation shock will be attempted to terminate the arrhythmia. Up to two defibrillation energies will be tested for Configuration A. Then up to two defibrillation energies will be tested for Configuration B.
Procedure: Removal of defibrillation coils and pulse generator
Defibrillation coils and pulse generator will be removed from the subject after the defibrillation tests are completed.
Experimental: Configuration B first
Subjects receive the test of Configuration B first and Configuration A second.
Procedure: Temporary implantation of defibrillation coils and pulse generator
Each subject will undergo temporary implantation of defibrillation coils and pulse generator according to the NV-ICD electrode configurations.
Procedure: Removal of defibrillation coils and pulse generator

Procedure: Defibrillation following induction of VA (Configuration B first)
Ventricular arrhythmia (VA) will be induced via an EP catheter placed in the right ventricle. After VA is confirmed, a defibrillation shock will be attempted to terminate the arrhythmia. Up to two defibrillation energies will be tested for Configuration B. Then up to two defibrillation energies will be tested for Configuration A.

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
The rate of successful defibrillation of induced VA using each of the two NV-ICD electrode configurations
Time Frame: During the study procedure
Successful defibrillation is defined as termination of the induced VA to sinus rhythm or other non-life threatening ventricular or escape rhythm (such as atrial fibrillation) as determined by the implanting physician.
During the study procedure

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The number of acute adverse events associated with the temporary implant and defibrillation testing with the two NV-ICD electrode configurations under investigation
Time Frame: Within 1 month of the study procedure
Descriptive outcome summarizing possible acute adverse events with the temporary implant and defibrillation testing
Within 1 month of the study procedure
