Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if patients implanted with a St. Jude Medical (SJM) implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) will benefit by using AutoIntrinsic Conduction Search (AICS) rather than only a programmed AV/PV delay. Read more about this study

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

  • Patient has been implanted with a dual chamber SJM ICD with AICS for 1 month (± 2 weeks).

About this study

Official title: Reduce Ventricular Pacing in Dual Chamber Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators Using AutoIntrinsic Conduction Search (REDUCE Study)

The purpose of this study is to determine if patients implanted with a St. Jude Medical (SJM) implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) will benefit by using AutoIntrinsic Conduction Search (AICS) rather than only a programmed AV/PV delay. This study will compare the two methods of programming with respect to intrinsic activity.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary endpoint is the percentage of intrinsic ventricular events.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of atrial tachycardia (AT), atrial fibrillation (AF), ventricular tachycardia (VT), and ventricular fibrillation (VF) episodes

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Frequency of inappropriate ICD therapy during AT/AF

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Frequency of appropriate ICD therapy for VT/VF

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Study related adverse events

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Autointrinsic Conduction Search Algorithm in people with Arrhythmia, run by Abbott Medical Devices at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2019. 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 United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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 endpoint is the percentage of intrinsic ventricular events. (time frame: 3 months). 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 4 Feb 2019.
