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

Study population: The investigator is responsible for screening all potential subjects and selecting those who are appropriate for study inclusion. Potential subjects will be evaluated to determine if they meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The subjects selected for participation should be from the investigator's general patient population according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients who require a legally authorized representative will not be allowed in the study.

Who may be able to join

  • Meet the indications for subcutaneous cardiac rhythm monitor insertion according to local regulations
  • Patient is able to understand the nature of the study and provide written informed consent
  • Inserted within the prior 30 days, or scheduled for insertion within 14 days, with BIOTRONIK's most current subcutaneous cardiac rhythm monitor
  • Diagnosed with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and being evaluated for an AF ablation
  • Agree to wearing a 48 hr Holter monitor
  • Able and willing to complete all study visits at the study site for the study duration
  • Able and willing to use a CardioMessenger® and accepts Home Monitoring concept
  • Age greater than or equal to 18 years

Who cannot join

  • Patient meets none of the indications for a BIOMONITOR
  • Patient is planned to have an ablation prior to BIOMONITOR insertion or 48 hr Holter monitoring visit
  • Patient is currently diagnosed with long-standing persistent or permanent AF
  • Patient is enrolled in another study that may change or alter the cardiac rhythm that occurs prior to the completion of the Holter
  • Currently indicated for or implanted with a pacemaker, ICD device, or hemodynamic monitoring system
  • Life expectancy less than 6 months
Show all 12Show fewer
  • Patients reporting pregnancy at the time of enrollment
  • For patients enrolled after BIOMONITOR insertion:
  • R-wave sensing <0.25 mV according to the most recent remote or in-person device interrogation available prior to enrollment
  • After the pre-Holter observation period but prior to 48 hr Holter monitoring initiation, confirm the absence of the following exclusion criteria based on the remote interrogation collected at the end of the observation period:
  • No AF episodes observed or transmitted during pre-Holter observation period
  • R-wave sensing <0.25 mV during pre-Holter observation period as reported by the 24 hr mean or mean value since last follow-up

About this study

Official title: BIO-Precision Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic utility of BIOTRONIK's subcutaneous cardiac rhythm monitor for the detection of AF prior to an ablation procedure.

Read the detailed description

BIO-Precision is a post-market study investigating the utility of atrial fibrillation (AF) detection using BIOTRONIK's subcutaneous cardiac rhythm monitor, BIOMONITOR. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic utility of BIOTRONIK's BIOMONITOR for the detection and confirmation of AF prior to an ablation procedure. Study population includes patients with paroxysmal AF being evaluated for an AF ablation. Holter monitoring for 48 hours will be performed after insertion of the BIOMONITOR but prior to AF ablation. This study will enroll up to 100 subjects, to obtain 60 usable Holter recordings, at 5 study sites within the United States (U.S.). Study subjects will be followed for three months after the completion of a 48 hr Holter monitor.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic Sensitivity

    The diagnostic sensitivity of the BIOMONITOR will be determined by comparing AF events detected by the BIOMONITOR and 48 hr Holter monitor for each subject. Diagnostic sensitivity is the ability of the BIOMONITOR to correctly identify subjects who have true AF as determined by the Holter monitor. It is calculated as the number of participants with a true BIOMONITOR AF detection divided by the sum of the number of participants with a true BIOMONITOR AF detection and the number of participants with a false negative BIOMONITOR AF detection.

    Measured: 48 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation, run by Biotronik, Inc. at 5 sites in United States.

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 12 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. 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 5 Apr 2022). 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?

Diagnostic Sensitivity (time frame: 48 hours). 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 5 Apr 2022.
