About this study

Official title: VIVO Non-invasive Time Assessment Protocol

This is a single centre study enrolling 15 subjects with structurally normal hearts that are already indicated for a ventricular ablation procedure (VT or PVCs).

The purpose is to compare the accuracy of VIVO and to assess its efficacy to decrease procedural time, and ideally, the procedural overall costs, as compared to standard of care ablation procedures. Results will be compared with data from

Read the detailed description

VIVO TM is a non invasive mapping system which can be used to localize PVC / VT origin prior to the ablative procedure.

Subjects scheduled for catheter ablation with VIVO will undergo a CT scan prior to the procedure, which will be used to create a personalized 3D model. This will be merged with a 3D photograph (taken at the start of the procedure) of the ECG electrodes on the subject's torso.

Then, the recording of the 12 lead ECG will be imported into the VIVO software. All of this data will be combined via the software and a mathematical algorithm will determine the origin of the arrhythmia. This will show the physician where to perform a successful ablation. After 3 months, the subject will return for follow up and will receive another ECG Holter monitor (ECG recording) to determine ablation success.

Subjects will be exited from the study after the 3 month follow up visit. Patients will receive standard clinical care prior to, during and after their scheduled procedure, as well as after being discarded from the trial.

Results will be analysed and compared to those from an historical cohort of patients (age / gender matched, undergone the same procedure) ablated by the same operator within the previous 5 years (from a database already collected). Data will be anonymised as per current regulations.

What is being measured

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

  1. Reduction of procedural time (in minutes)

    Use of VIVO mapping to localize the PVC / VT origin prior to the catheter procedure in order to change procedural time. Procedural time is meant to be measured in minutes per procedure, and it is normally considered from "puncture time" to "sheaths removal".

    Measured: three months

  2. Safety - absence of acute adverse events using VIVO system for non-invasive mapping

    Absence of acute adverse events due to the use of VIVO system during PVC/VT ablation in the cohort of patients enrolled for the study. Acute adverse events are described in section 12 of the study protocol and will be reported in specific forms to the Sponsor and REC.

    Measured: three months

  3. Safety 2 - absence of acute adverse events using VIVO system for mapping and during the whole ablation procedure

    Safety endpoint of the entire mapping and ablation strategy, determined by the absence of adverse events (AEs).

    Measured: three months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. economical outcome: change of procedural costs

    To assess economical outcome, which is meant as cost change (in pounds) per number of cases

    Measured: three months

  2. clinical outcome assessed as change of PVCs/VT burden

    Count of PVC/VT burden at 3-month follow up Holter (expressed as No. / 24 hours)

    Measured: three months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing VIVO non invasive mapping in people with Ventricular Tachycardia and Ventricular Ectopic Beat(S), run by Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust.

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 5 inclusion and 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Sabine Ernst, MD, PhD (00442073518612, s.ernst@rbht.nhs.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Reduction of procedural time (in minutes) (time frame: three months). The study lists 3 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 21 Jun 2019.
