Trial summary

Pacing leads are key elements of a pacing system as their proper functioning is one of the major factors affecting the long term performance of the whole system. Success of a pacing lead implant can be defined considering 3 items: ease of lead implant, lead stability and lead electrical performances. Read more about this study

About this study

Pacing leads are key elements of a pacing system as their proper functioning is one of the major factors affecting the long term performance of the whole system.

Success of a pacing lead implant can be defined considering 3 items: ease of lead implant, lead stability and lead electrical performances.

Read more

These factors may be related to the physician experience (global implant experience, experience with a given lead), to the implant procedure (lead access, lead position, implant time, scopy time) to the lead (handling and mechanical characteristics) and to the patient (ischemic history).

Even though implant success rate is quite high with currently available leads, the weight of the different factors influencing success has never been studied systematically. The objective of the current study is then to define the predictive factors of an implant success with the CapsureFix MRI model 5086.

This lead has been selected because it has been available for a short period, so the investigators have a limited experience of it and it has a unique design which makes it conditionally safe in an MRI environment and which may be associated with specific handling characteristics.

What is being measured

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

  1. Ease of Implant

    Ease of implant as experienced by the implanting physician on maneuverability of the catheter. This was measured by a questionnaire for which each criterion was coded as Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor, Very Poor. Coding 9, 7, 5, 3, 1 was applied for each response with 9 representing Very Good. An average was calculated for each evaluation and for each probe implantation site.

    Measured: at implant

  2. Lead Stability

    Lead stability of the Capsure Fix as measured by number of dislodgments

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Pacing Threshold During and Post Implant of the CapsureFix MRI Lead Model 5086

    Change of pacing threshold will be measured during and post implant of the CapsureFix MRI lead model 5086

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Sensing Amplitude During and Post Implant of the CapsureFix MRI Lead Model 5086

    Change of sensing amplitude will be measured during and post implant of the CapsureFix MRI Lead Model 5086

    Measured: 3 months

  5. Impedance Measurements During and Post Implant of the CapsureFix MRI Lead Model 5086

    Change of impedance will be measured during and post implant of the CapsureFix MRI Lead Model 5086

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bradyarrhythmia, run by Medtronic Cardiac Rhythm and Heart Failure at 1 site in France.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 2 Jul 2025. 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 France. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Jan 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Ease of Implant (time frame: at implant). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 2 Jul 2025.
