Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients selected for participation in this investigation should be candidates for permanent pacemaker implantation chosen from the investigator's general patient population without regard for race or sex. Furthermore, these patients should, in the physician's general opinion, benefit from permanent pacemaker implantation with one of the study leads. Patients should be geographically stable and available for routine follow-up visits throughout the duration of the study. Patients must also be able and willing to provide informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who previously went through heart surgery should be excluded from the study.

About this study

Official title: Scandinavian Atrial Lead Trial

Randomised Comparison with regards to complication rate and electrical measurements of atrial leads with different fixation mechnism

Read the detailed description

This investigation will study and compare 3 types of electrically identical, commercially available FineLine II Sterox leads with different fixation mechanisms. This trial has been designed to primarily study the difference in repositioning rate between active and passive fixation (straight and J-shaped) leads, if any. It will also monitor and document the behavior of the study leads, with special reference to electrical parameters and handling. Normal measurements are taken at pre-dicharge, 1-month 3-month and 12-month follow-up

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • FineLine II Sterox, FineLine II Sterox, FineLine II Sterox EZDevice

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary objective of this study is to compare repositioning rate due to threshold > 3.0 V @ 0.5 ms or P-wave < 0.8 mV between FineLine II Sterox 4480 and 4470, and between 4456 and 4470.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. 1. Other complications (Safety). To compare other lead related complication rates such as perforation, lead fracture and failure to implant. 2. Electrical properties

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing FineLine II Sterox, FineLine II Sterox, FineLine II Sterox EZ in people with Bradycardia, run by Guidant Corporation at 1 site in Sweden.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Sweden. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary objective of this study is to compare repositioning rate due to threshold > 3.0 V @ 0.5 ms or P-wave < 0.8 mV between FineLine II Sterox 4480 and 4470, and between 4456 and 4470.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Mar 2015.
