Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety and Efficacy Study of the QuickFlex Micro Model 1258T Left Heart Pacing Lead (NCT NCT00763698)

NCT ID: NCT00763698

Last Updated: 2019-02-19

Results Overview

A Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was carried out for left ventricular lead related complications through 3 months. Percentage of patients who remained free from complications at 3 months was reported.

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at 18 investigational centers located in the United States (US). The first patient was enrolled on October 30, 2008 and follow up was completed on May 31, 2009.

All patients were included in the study analysis with the exception of patients who underwent unsuccessful implantation of the 1258T lead system. These patients were followed for a period of 30 days and then were withdrawn from the study.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 months

Population: Analysis was conducted on the 81 patients with a successful left ventricular lead implant.

A Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was carried out for left ventricular lead related complications through 3 months. Percentage of patients who remained free from complications at 3 months was reported.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 months

Population: All patients with an implant or attempted implant were included in the analysis.

Left ventricular lead implant success rate was calculated as the total number of patients who had a successful implant of the left ventricular QuickFlex Micro Model 1258T lead divided by the total number of patients who had an attempted implant. A successful implant was defined as the placement of the left ventricular lead in the coronary sinus for the purposes of pacing of the left ventricle with connection to the pulse generator.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 months

Population: This effectiveness endpoint was carried out on the first 16 patients who had a LV lead bipolar pacing capture threshold measurement at 3 months at 0.5 ms pulse width. This patient cohort is referred to as the "Primary Pacing Capture Threshold Patient Cohort".

The mean left ventricular capture threshold (amount of energy needed to pace the heart) is reported. An overall mean capture threshold of \< 3 volts is required to meet this endpoint.
