Mechanisms and Innovations in Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy

Heart FailureLeft Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction3 more

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of multiple modalities of cardiac resynchronisation therapy using high precision acute electrical and haemodynamic measurements.These modalities include biventricular pacing and conduction system pacing utilising His bundle and left bundle pacing. Conduction system pacing is a more physiological form of pacing. The study hypothesises that this will produce more effective cardiac resynchronisation.

Adaptive Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in Patients With RBBB

Right Bundle-Branch Block

This study will address whether acute adaptive RV pacing in sinus rhythm patients with severe LV systolic dysfunction and RBBB is superior to no ventricular pacing, and is as effective as echocardiographically optimized biventricular (BIV) pacing based on Medtronic ECG belt and cardiac performance as assessed by the echocardiographic parameters of RV and LV function.

Tailor-CRT: Better Application of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy

Heart FailureLeft Bundle-Branch Block

Approximately one third of patients treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) do not derive any clinical benefit. CRT response can be improved by tailoring LV lead placement and programming of atrio-ventricular (AV) and inter-ventricular (VV) stimulation intervals to the individual patient. However, the best strategy to optimize lead positioning and device programming still remains to be established. Earlier work in our research group suggests that the vector cardiogram (VCG) can be used to determine the optimal LV lead position and AV- and VV-intervals, and pilot studies showed the feasibility to derive a VCG-like signal (D-VCG) from the implanted pacing electrodes. Other studies have suggested that the best position for the LV electrode is the region of latest electrical activation. The region of latest electrical activation can be identified by measuring the electrical delay on the LV lead (LVLED) during implantation. The objective of this study is to investigate whether D-VCG can be used to determine the optimal AV- and VV-interval and whether VCG and LVLED can be used to determine the optimal LV lead position.

CRT Implant Strategy Using the Longest Electrical Delay for Non-left Bundle Branch Block Patients...

Non-left Bundle Branch BlockIschemic or Non-ischemic Cardiomyopathy

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of left ventricular lead pacing location in the non-left bundle branch block (non-LBBB) heart failure patient population. The left ventricular lead pacing location will be guided by either the pacing site with the largest amount of dyssynchrony as measured by the LV electrical delay (QLV) or the physician's standard of care implant approach.

Heart FailureSystolic1 more

Despite the dramatic effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) on survival and morbidity in people with congestive heart failure, 50-70% of eligible patients do not respond to this intervention. There is retrospective evidence that placement of the left ventricular (LV) lead at the region of latest mechanical delay markedly improves response to CRT. However, there is no feasible way to gauge dyssynchrony at LV lead sites during CRT implantation. Impedance recordings from pacing lead tips allow for real-time assessment of mechanical motion and may represent a useful intraoperative tool to guide optimum placement of the LV lead during CRT implantation. This pilot trial will assess the use of intraoperative impedograms in humans to measure regional dyssynchrony at potential LV lead locations during CRT implantation.

Adaptive CRT Effect on Electrical Dyssynchrony

CardiomyopathyHeart Failure1 more

The purpose of this study is to better understand how adaptive cardiac resynchronization therapy (aCRT) might benefit patients. aCRT works by sometimes giving stimulation to only the left side of the heart, rather than to both sides, depending on how it senses the heart is functioning. CRT without the adaptive algorithm works by giving stimulation to both sides of the heart. aCRT has already been approved by the FDA and is being used in patients now, but it is not clear which patients it should be used in compared to normal CRT. This study will include patients who are already scheduled to get a CRT device. The investigators will then randomize patients to the aCRT study arm or to the CRT study arm. After 6 months, the investigators will assess the electrical activity of the patients' hearts. After this time, the patient and their doctors will be able to decide if they would like to change the type CRT they have been designated.

AdaptResponse Clinical Trial

Heart Failure With Left Bundle Branch Block

The purpose of this clinical study is to test the hypothesis that market released Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) devices which contain the AdaptivCRT® (aCRT) algorithm have a superior outcome compared to standard CRT devices in CRT indicated patients with normal atrio-ventricular (AV) conduction and left bundle branch block (LBBB).

The CRT-KIR Study (Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy [CRT] in the Early Phase After Heart Surgery)...

Bundle-Branch Block

In patients with broad QRS complexes on electrocardiogram (ECG), the delayed electrical activation of the left heart chamber will cause abnormal contraction.This has been shown to be possible to treat by a special pacemaker treatment which includes pacing of the left heart chamber (= CRT treatment). In this study the researchers will investigate the effect of acute CRT treatment in the early phase after open heart surgery.

Prognostic Factors in NOP-LBBB After TAVI

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

The goal of this observational study is to find prognostic factors in patients with a new-onset persistent left bundle branch block (NOP-LBBB) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The main question it aims to answer is: Are there any factors influencing heart failure or death risk during the year following TAVI in patients with NOP-LBBB ? Participants will have data collection about TAVI procedure and clinical evolution during a one-year follow-up.
