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

Study population: The study subjects will include patients currently implanted, or who will be implanted with a market-approved Medtronic Evera MRI® ICD.

Who may be able to join

  • Subject is implanted or will be implanted, with an Evera MRI device with properly functioning Medtronic tachycardia lead placed in the right ventricle (with or without atrial lead) with remaining device longevity of 4 years or more for:
  • Secondary Prevention or,
  • Primary Prevention and has had a device treated VT/VF or a device recorded episode of sustained VT/VF
  • Subject is ≥ 18 years old
  • Subject has previously documented history of VT/VF
  • Subject must be willing and able to use Medtronic CareLink network monitoring system
  • Subject provides signed and dated authorization and/or consent per institution and local requirements
  • Subject is willing and able to comply with the protocol

Who cannot join

  • Subject who received device for Primary Prevention indication and who has not had either a device treated VT/VF episode or a device recorded episode of sustained VT/VF
  • Subject is enrolled in a concurrent study that may confound the results of this study, without documented pre-approval from a Medtronic study manager
  • Subject has chronic AF
  • Subject has inherited disorders of ion transport mechanisms that predispose the subject to sudden death ("Channelopathies"): Long QT and Brugada Syndromes
  • Subject with multiple implanted active devices that may cause an interruption of a transmission of device data to CareLink
  • Subject has active electronic medical device other than an ICD
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Subject requires more than 25% atrial or ventricular pacing
  • Subject has medical conditions that would limit study participation (per investigator judgment)

About this study

The purpose of the Medtronic Tachy Prediction Download (TPD) study is to collect data from an implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) device that will be used to identify markers for imminent onset of ventricular arrhythmias.

Read the detailed description

The TPD Study is a prospective, non-randomized, non-interventional, multi-site data collection clinical study to collect ICD longitudinal data that may be used to develop a VT/VF prediction algorithm. The study subjects will include patients currently implanted, or who will be implanted with a market-approved Medtronic Evera MRI® ICD.

Being tested
TPD RAMWare
Medical subject headings
Tachycardia, Ventricular

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ventricular Tachycardia, run by Medtronic Cardiac Rhythm and Heart Failure at 16 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 8 inclusion and 11 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 16 Nov 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in United States, Hong Kong. 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 16 Nov 2021). 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?

Number of Participants With Device Detected Ventricular Tachycardia/Ventricular Fibrillation Episodes (time frame: 1 year). 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 16 Nov 2021.
