Active clinical trials for "Bradycardia"

The study is designed to collect data on Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) implant and patient characteristics to support development of future CIED products and procedures.

The main purpose of the Product Performance Report (formerly referred to as System Longevity Study) is to evaluate long-term performance of Medtronic market-released cardiac rhythm products by analyzing product survival probabilities.

The primary study objective is to evaluate the feasibility, initial clinical safety and potential effectiveness of the Calyan Pacemaker system.

In a multicenter non-randomized acute setting, eligible subjects requiring implant or replacement of an IPG (pacemaker, ICD, CRT-P, CRT-D) will be instrumented to study the effect of CNT from different locations in the RV. CNT effects on BP will be evaluated with a PV conductance catheter in the LV, and with optional BP catheters in the aorta and/or RV. CNT will be delivered by externally by the BackBeat Moderato System IPG. Abbreviations: CNT, Cardiac Neuromodulation Therapy; IPG, Implanted Pulse Generator; ICD, Implanted Cardiac Defribillator; CRT-P or D, Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy-Pacemaker or Defibrillator; RV, Right Ventricle; LV, Left Ventricle; BP, Blood Pressure

The purpose of this registry is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of LBBA pacing/sensing in patients already implanted with the Tendril STS 2088 lead.

The purpose of this study is to compare chronic (1-year) effects on left ventricular ejection fraction resulting from transvenous pacing of the right ventricular apex (RVA) versus the left ventricular apex (LVA) in patients with preserved or mildly reduced left ventricular systolic function (>= 45%).

The closed-loop stimulation (CLS) algorithm is a novel sensor-based technology that relies on the change in myocardial systolic impedance for modulation of the heart rate during physical and emotional stress.3 The pacing algorithm has been shown to be highly effective for a wide range of clinical scenarios. Despite the fact that congenital heart disease (CHD) patients are likely to derive significant benefit in terms of functional ability and aerobic capacity using this novel technology, the CLS system has not been adequately studied in this population. As many CHD patients also undergo epicardial placement of pacing systems at the time of concomitant cardiac surgery, CLS has been less often utilized in this population given almost no data in the setting of surgical electrode placement. The present study intends to examine the benefits of the CLS algorithm in the CHD population, employing the use of epicardial pacemaker systems in the study protocol.

Participants in this study will either have heart failure (HF) and are scheduled to undergo pace maker (PM) implantation, cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker (CRT-P), cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) implantation, His bundle pacing (HIBP) or left bundle area pacing (LBAP) (including HIBP/LBAP for patients with HF, for patients who have failed CRT implant or patients who are CRT non-responders), or have atrioventricular (AV) block or bradycardia and are scheduled to undergo dual chamber pacemaker implantation. In this study additional heart rhythm measurements will be collected during the implant procedure to better understand how His bundle and/or parahisian pacing (HISP) effects electrical conduction in the hearts of patients with HF or AV block. The hypothesis is that His bundle or parahisian pacing (HISP) and left bundle area pacing (LBAP) may normalize atrioventricular (AV) conduction with a narrow combination of the Q wave, R wave and S wave (QRS complex) in functional bundle branch block or conduction delay in patients with heart failure (HF).

Medtronic is sponsoring the Micra Registry to further confirm safety and effectiveness of the Micra Transcatheter Pacing System (Micra system) when used as intended, in "real-world" clinical practice, following commercial release. The Micra Registry is conducted within Medtronic's Product Surveillance Registry.

This is a voluntary research study to find out which location in the heart a pacemaker wire is the most efficient for a patient's heart and for battery life. Patients who volunteer and are eligible for the study will be randomized to receive one of two positions for the wire to be screwed into, in addition to studying multiple positions in the heart during the pacemaker insertion. Enrolled patients will be in the study for 1 year. They will also have an Ultrasound of their heart performed to assess how the pacemaker wire is affecting their heart. Pacemakers are connected to the heart by wires that are screwed into the heart. The wires can be connected to the heart in different places, which can affect how well the heart beats over time. The typical position is at the tip of the heart. This position may cause the heart to beat inefficiently. Over time, this could lead to weakened heart muscle, irregular heart rhythm, and more hospitalizations. The heart has special muscle cells and fibers that carry electrical signals through and around the heart. An alternative spot to place the pacemaker wire is in an area where these special cells are grouped together (called the HIS bundle). The pacemaker wire can be connected to the heart at a location which may allow the heart to beat more efficiently when compared to putting the wire at traditional spots in the heart (called HIS bundle pacing). However, sometimes connecting the wire into the HIS bundle may cause the pacemaker battery to wear out faster. Physicians can also connect the pacemaker wired near the HIS bundle (called Left left Bundle bundle area pacing). The study physicians hope this will allow the heart to beat more efficiently without causing the battery to wear out faster. The study physicians would like to study how different wire positions change heart beat efficiency and how long the pacemaker battery lasts when the wires are placed in different locations. This study will connect the pacemaker wire at either the HIS Bundle or the left bundle area pacing, to see how effectively the heart pumps and how much battery is being used.
