Evaluation of Inducible Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (MMVT) in Patients With St. Jude Medical (SJM) Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) Systems or Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillation (CRT-D) Systems.
- Conditions
- Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia
- Registration Number
- NCT02584595
- Lead Sponsor
- Abbott Medical Devices
- Brief Summary
The intent of this observational study is to understand the role of non-invasive programmed stimulation (NIPS) to induce substrate based MMVT (Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia) in patients receiving new St. Jude Medical Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) or Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillation (CRT-D) systems.
- Detailed Description
Approximately 50 centers worldwide will participate in the study. Additional centers outside the US may be considered, as necessary. The anticipated enrollment duration is 48-60 months.
This study provides a mechanism for sites to refer subjects for potential enrollment to the Substrate Targeted Ablation Using the FlexAbility™ Ablation Catheter System for the Reduction of Ventricular Tachycardia (STAR-VT) Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) study (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02130765).
Patients receiving ICD or CRT-D device implant (or have received it within 30 days) may be enrolled in the study.
