Acute Feedback on Left ventrIcular Lead Implantation Location for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CCI impact)

March 30, 2016 updated by: Erik Kongsgaard, Oslo University Hospital
Exploratory, prospective, interventional, non-randomized single-center research study to compare metrics derived from 2 or 3-D reconstructions of lead movement, bioimpedance and VCG to augmentation of left ventricular contractility (LV dP/dt max) at different pacing configurations in patients undergoing a CRT-implant. Pacing sites and contractility data will be compared to pre operative cardiac ultrasound and MRI metrics.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subject is indicated for CRT or CRT-D device according to current applicable ESC/AHA guidelines
  • Subject is in stable sinus rhythm at the time of implant (no atrial arrhythmias lasting > 30 seconds during the last 2 weeks prior to inclusion). No documented AF-episodes allowed during the last 2 weeks prior to inclusion.
  • Subject receives optimal heart failure oral medical therapy (ACE inhibitor and/or ARB and Beta Blockers), and is on a stable medication scheme for at least 2 months prior to enrollment.
  • Subject (or the legal guardian) is willing to sign informed consent form

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Permanent atrial fibrillation/ flutter or tachycardia
  • RBBB
  • Recent myocardial infarction (MI), within 40 days prior to enrollment. Subject underwent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or valve surgery, within 90 days prior to enrollment
  • Post heart transplantation, or is actively listed on the transplantation list, or has reasonable probability (per investigator's discretion) of undergoing transplantation in the next year
  • Implanted with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD), or has reasonable probability (per investigator's discretion) of receiving a LVAD in the next year
  • On chronic renal dialysis, or with severe renal disease (defined as estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (equation provided by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease study): (eGFR) < 30 mL/min/1.73m2)
  • On continuous or uninterrupted infusion (inotropic) therapy for heart failure (≥ 2 stable infusions a week)
  • Severe aortic stenosis (with a valve area of <1.0 cm2 or significant valve disease expected to be operated on within study period)
  • Complex and uncorrected congenital heart disease
  • Mechanical heart valve
  • Breastfeeding women, or women of child bearing potential and who are not on a reliable form of birth control
  • Enrolled in one or more concurrent studies that would confound the results of this study
  • Already implanted with pacemaker (CRT, CRT-D, ICD) and needs replacement

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
dP\dt max response to different ventricular lead pacing sites
Time Frame: 6 months
To compare metrics derived from 2 or 3-D reconstructions of lead movement to augmentation of left ventricular contractility (LV dP/dt max) at different pacing configurations in patients undergoing a CRT-implant Main objective is to identify the optimal LV pacing site within each patient where the force of contraction during BiV pacing is maximized and to assess the feasibility of a non-invasive sensor to identify this optimal site.
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Lead movements and electrical measures
Time Frame: 6 months
Compare metrics derived from 2/3-D reconstructions of lead movement to electrical measures (e.g. Q-LV-timing or VCG) at different pacing configurations in patients undergoing a CRT-implant.
6 months
Metrics derived from 2/3-D reconstructions of lead movement and Force-Interval-Relation
Time Frame: 6 months

6 months
Metrics derived from 2/3-D reconstructions of lead movement and CardioGuide Motion Map
Time Frame: 6 months
To compare metrics derived from 2/3-D reconstructions of lead movement to CardioGuide Motion Map at different pacing configurations in patients undergoing a CRT-implant.
