NCT07236489
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has rapidly expanded over the past decade as a treatment for severe aortic valve stenosis, with over 14,000 procedures performed in France in 2021. A common complication following TAVI is traumatic atrioventricular block requiring pacemaker implantation, occurring in about 10% of patients. Conventional right ventricular pacing in these cases often leads to interventricular dyssynchrony, which can impair left ventricular ejection fraction and increase the risk of hospitalization, heart failure, and mortality. Cardiac resynchronization therapy via biventricular pacing is sometimes proposed as a secondary intervention but involves additional surgery. A newer pacing technique-selective left bundle branch area pacing-has been developed to provide physiological ventricular activation by stimulating conduction pathways distal to the lesion, thereby avoiding dyssynchrony. Retrospective studies suggest clinical benefits, but no prospective randomized trial has yet evaluated its efficacy compared to standard pacing. The objective of this study is to conduct the first randomized clinical trial comparing left bundle branch area pacing versus conventional right ventricular pacing in patients requiring pacemaker implantation due to atrioventricular block after TAVI.
NCT07196397
The multicentre observational study POL-CA involves a wide spectrum of patients with a history of syncopy. The study recruits patients with diagnosed vasovagal syndrome, cardioinhibitory carotid sinus syndrome, symptomatic sinus bradycardia or atrioventricular block, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, orthostatic hypotension, and inappropriate sinus tachycardia syndrome. This is an observational, controlled study with retrospective, clinical data analysis of previously treated patients and the analysis of syncopal patients prospectively recruited into the study. The aim of the POL-CA registry is to create a platform for physicians to record treatment data for patients undergoing procedures that affect innervation or modify cardiovascular reflexes (cardioneuroablation, cardioneuromodulation) in order to provide a multicentre summary of population characteristics and treatment outcomes based on a standardized POL-CA questionnaire and methodology for various arrhythmias.
NCT05251363
The purpose of the BIO-CONDUCT study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the BIOTRONIK Solia S pacing lead when implanted in the left bundle branch (LBB) area. Safety will be assessed by evaluating serious adverse device effects that occur through 3 months post-implant. Efficacy will be assessed by evaluating implant success rate.
NCT05541679
The purpose of the study is to investigate the superiority of chronic left bundle branch area pacing compared to traditional right ventricular (RV) septal pacing in patients with high-grade conduction disease after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). In this investigator initiated, multicenter, prospective, double-blinded, crossover study, chronic left bundle branch area pacing will be compared to chronic right ventricular septal pacing using echocardiographic measures of left ventricular systolic function in patients with a high cumulative ventricular pacing burden after TAVR.
NCT06652750
Objective: This clinical study employs a prospective, paired, self-controlled, non-inferiority, multicenter research design to assess the safety and efficacy of utilizing 5G cloud follow-up for CIED in parameters monitoring and remote programming post-implantation. Participants will: undergo regular clinic follow-up visits in accordance with the guidelines undergo routine in-office follow-up and 5G cloud follow-up during each regular clinic visit
NCT06474819
Multicenter randomized controlled trial which will include patients with left ventricular ejection fraction \>50% requiring a first implant of a cardiac pacemaker with expected high pacing percentages. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to right ventricular apical pacing vs left septal or deep septal pacing. The primary endpoint will be pacing-induced cardiomyopathy during the first year of follow-up.
NCT06026683
The aim of the study is to demonstrate that conduction system pacing (CSP) can preserve a normal ventricular function compared to right ventricular apical pacing (RVAP) in patients with pre-implant preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and a high burden of expected ventricular pacing due to atrioventricular conduction block (AV block). After informed consent signature, patients with high degree AV block and normal LVEF will be randomized to permanent pacemaker stimulation with CSP vs RVAP. All the patients have a complete evaluation before the procedure and at 3 and 6 months follow-up.
NCT04544345
This study aims to determine the clinical and hemodynamic benefit of atrio-ventricular (AV) resynchronization with His bundle pacing in patients with symptomatic first degree AV block.
NCT03757377
The purpose of this double blind randomized study is the evaluation of the safety and efficacy of the Moderato System. The Moderato implantable pulse generator is indicated for patients who have hypertension and also require a dual chamber pacemaker in order to reduce their blood pressure. In this amended CS-03 protocol Version 3.0, the study will evaluate the safety and efficacy in a randomized, double-blind study following active treatment vs. a control patient population for a period of 3 month for efficacy and 12 months for safety (In comparison to 6 months for patients under protocol CS-03 Ver 1.1, NCT02837445). The device will be considered to have a clinical effectiveness with regard to its anti-hypertension function if there is a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in mean 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure in the treatment group compared to the control group. The primary efficacy endpoint will be evaluated 3 months after randomization. The Primary safety analysis will compare the treatment and the control after 12 months of treatment.
NCT00187278
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate if patients with a standard indication for permanent ventricular pacing, left ventricular ejection fraction without limit, or any QRS duration will profit from the prevention of ventricular desynchronisation.
NCT03851315
Right ventricular pacing (RVP) causes left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony by inducing electrical interventricular and intraventricular dyssynchrony. His bundle pacing may restore the the atrioventricular, interventricular and intraventricular electrical synchronization, however, Increased pacing threshold might result in the early depletion of the pacemaker, and finally brought on pacemaker replacement, which was one of the major causes of device infection. Pacing the left bundle branch beyond the conduction block site might achieve a low and stable output and narrow QRSd. The investigators were prepared to consecutively include patients with atrioventricular block, divided into the left bundle branch area pacing(LBBAP) group and the conventional right ventricular pacing group. The electrophysiological characteristics of LBBAP and right ventricular pacing were compared with ECG characteristics. The left and right ventricular synchrony and left and right cardiac function were evaluated by 3D ultrasound, and the short-term and long-term safety and efficacy of LBBAP were evaluated.
NCT03024047
Background: Disturbances of the heart's atrioventricular conduction - AV-block - may show by shortness of breath, fainting or sudden death. If AV-block is diagnosed in time pacemaker therapy may be lifesaving. AV-block in younger can be seen along with structural or ischemic heart disease, congenital heart disease (incl. congenital AV-block) storage disorders, specific muscle diseases, sarcoidosis, Borrelia infection or drug intoxication. AV-block in younger can also be seen in conditions, primarily localized to the AV-node without other cardiac disease at diagnosis. This form of AV-block is often hereditary and can be seen in families where relatives have another types of heart disease in form of fore example, cardiomyopathy, ion channel disease or sudden death. The different forms of presentation are due to the same gene mutation being expressed differently within the same family. Thus, early onset of AV-block (\<50 years) may indicate hereditary AV-conduction disorder but it can also be the first manifestation of severe ion channel disease or cardiomyopathy. Denmark has annually over 50 individuals \<50 years treated with pacemaker due to advanced AV-block. There have been no overall figures regarding the causes of advanced AV-block, and therefore no systematic approach to diagnosing this group of patients. Furthermore, the prevalence of individuals with a genetic cause of AV-block is unknown and presumably an often overlooked diagnosis among younger patients with advanced AV-blok. There are no data on disease progression after diagnosis, and therefore there is no evidence-based knowledge about how these patients should be followed after diagnosis. With modern gene technology, a range of new, yet unknown genes with potentially pathogenic mutations is likely to be identified. Identification of such genes, and the development of a strategy for systematic approach to diagnose younger patients with AV-block, will enable presymptomatic genetic screening of relatives and implementation of evidence-based, preventive treatment with pacemaker and/or medical treatment for heart failure based on a specific genetic predisposition for development of AV-block with or without heart failure. Hypotheses: In a significant proportion of younger patients with advanced AV-block the underlying cause is unknown. Objective: To investigate the prevalence and causes of advanced AV-block in younger patients in Denmark and describe the current diagnostics. Method: The study is a cross sectional study. The patients for this study are identified from Danish Pacemaker and ICD Register. The investigators will review medical records and obtain clinical information and test results (see detailed description). Perspectives: This study is the first part of a large study of AV-block in younger patients in Denmark. The overall goal, is to increase knowledge about the causes of and disease progression after the diagnosis of advanced AV-block in young patients which could lead to a significant improvement in the treatment of this patient group and may lead to a customized choice of pacemaker type in the future and perhaps additional medical treatment in this patient group. This could potentially lead to a reduction in both their morbidity mortality.
