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 Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients intended to be implanted with a Micra system are eligible for enrollment and all patients must be consented prior to the implant. Only geographies with regulatory approval for the Micra system are eligible to enroll patients (see locations section). All patients enrolled and successfully implanted with a Micra system will be followed for a minimum of 9 years, unless a patient is exited from the registry due to an unavoidable reason. If a Micra system is not successfully implanted, patients will be exited from the registry unless a Micra System and/or implant procedure related event is identified, for which the patient will be followed until the event is resolved or no further actions need to be taken.

Who may be able to join

  • Patient or legally authorized representative provides written authorization and/or consent per institution and geographical requirements
  • Patient is intended to receive or be treated with a Micra Transcatheter Pacing System and must be enrolled prior to the TPS implant procedure

Who cannot join

  • Patient who is, or is expected to be inaccessible for follow-up
  • Patient with exclusion criteria required by local law
  • Patient is currently enrolled in or plans to enroll in any concurrent drug and/or device study that may confound results

About this study

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.

Read the detailed description

The Micra Registry is a global, prospective, observational, multi-site registry. Patients enrolled in the Micra Registry will be prospectively followed for a minimum of 9 years post-implant or until registry closure, patient death, patient exit from the registry (i.e., withdrawal of consent), or unless patient is participating in an acute performance sub-study of the Micra Registry*.

Enrolled patients will have scheduled follow-up visits at least annually or as prompted by reportable adverse events; however, all Micra system follow-up patient visits are to be reported. Therefore, if more frequent scheduled visits occur per a provider's standard care practice, those visits are reported. The total estimated registry duration is 11 years.

*Patients contributing to an acute performance sub-study of the Micra Registry do not contribute to the FDA-regulated Post-Approval Study which includes a long-term (minimum 9-year) patient follow-up period.

What participants receive

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

  • Micra Transcatheter Pacing SystemDevice

    Also called Micra, Micra TPS

    The Micra system is a miniaturized single chamber pacemaker system that is delivered via catheter through the femoral vein and is implanted directly inside the right ventricle of the heart. The Micra implantable device is a self-contained, hermetically enclosed, miniaturized single chamber pacemaker. The device is fixated via four electrically inactive nitinol tines, located on the distal end of the device.

Patients implanted with Micra SystemPatients implanted with a Micra Transcatheter Pacing System are eligible for enrollment into the Micra PA Registry.
Receives: Device: Micra Transcatheter Pacing System

What is being measured

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

  1. Acute complication rate

    To estimate acute complication rate related to the Micra system and/or implant procedure.

    Measured: 30-days

  2. Long-term complication free survival

    To estimate the chronic complication free survival rate of the Micra system.

    Measured: 9 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Pacing impedance (ohms) and pacing threshold (volts)

    Summary statistics of electrical performance 5-years post-implant measurements will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 9 years

  2. Complications stratified by implant type

    A listing of Micra system and/or implant procedure related complications stratified by implant types including de novo implants, previous cardiac device, or co-existing hardware. The listing will include complications will be listed including device implant date, complication category, complication date, device-relatedness and seriousness.

    Measured: Up to 9 years

  3. Estimate Micra System revision rate

    Summary statistics post-implant Micra System revisions, including system explant, replacement (with and without system explant), reposition will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 9 years

  4. Estimate System Longevity

    Summary statistics regarding battery length will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 9 years

  5. Confirm the rate response operation of the Micra system

    Analysis of treadmill testing data from patients implanted with Micra for at least 3 months. Rate response data collected in the registry will be combined with data from the FDA Investigational Device Exemption study (NCT 02004873).

    Measured: Approximately 2 years
