MRI Assessment of Patient Suitability for Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT)

Not Applicable
Suspended
Conditions
Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Interventions
Procedure: Cardiac MRI
Registration Number
NCT02728336
Lead Sponsor
NYU Langone Health
Brief Summary

The goals of this project are to: 1) explore the potential use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data for improved prediction of response to cardiac resynchronization (CRT), and 2) use the MRI-derived data together with a computer model of the cardiovascular system to study the relative roles of different factors in the mechanical effects of dyssynchrony in failure, and in the response (or lack thereof) to CRT.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Derivation of score of patient suitability for CRT4 Years

Binary logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analyses will be used to assess the utility of baseline (pre-CRT) MRI-derived measures, alone and in combination, for the prediction of response to CRT.
