About this study

Prospective, international, non-randomized, multicentre, clinical investigation (phase IV). The aim of the study is to investigate the correlation between HF, severe SBD, and AF in CRT-P patients at 6 months.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective is to estimate the change in severity of Sleep Breathing Disorders (SBD) in patients with or without reverse remodeling, in de-novo or upgrade implants, after 6 month follow-up.

The main secondary objective is to assess the prevalence, type and evolution of the SBD, co-morbidities and major adverse cardiac events in each subgroup of HF patients (based on the etiology), up to 12 months follow-up period.

Predictors of the clinical outcomes will be investigated.

Being tested
Echocardiographic, polygraphy, electrocardiography measurements and sleep questionnaire

What participants receive

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

  • Echocardiographic, polygraphy, electrocardiography measurements and sleep questionnaireOther

    each patient is asked to undergo an echocardiographic, polygraphy, electrocardiography measurements, and respond to 2 sleep questionnaires, both at inclusion and after 6 months

What is being measured

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

  1. The change in severity of SBD (by means of AHI as determined by PG), in the responders to CRT (reverse remodeling, delta LVESV=>15%) compared to the non-responders, at 6-month follow-up after implant (de-novo or upgrade).

    Measured: 6 months

  1. The main secondary objective is to assess the type of the SBD in each subgroup of HF patients (based on the etiology), up to 12 months follow-up period.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Echocardiographic, polygraphy, electrocardiography measurements and sleep questionnaire in people with Sleep Breathing Disorders in the Responders to Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy (CRT), run by LivaNova at 3 sites in 2 countries.

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 8 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Spain, Italy. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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 change in severity of SBD (by means of AHI as determined by PG), in the responders to CRT (reverse remodeling, delta LVESV=>15%) compared to the non-responders, at 6-month follow-up after implant (de-novo or upgrade). (time frame: 6 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 14 Nov 2017.
