NCT01168427

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to gather evidence about the safety and feasibility of performing the implant procedure for the Reveal Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) in an office or clinic setting rather than the traditional hospital operating room, cardiac catheterization or electrophysiology (EP) laboratory setting.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Procedure-related Complications Rate Requiring Resolution by Surgical Intervention

    This objective estimates the proportion of patients having procedure-related complication requiring resolution by surgical intervention at 90 days post-implant procedure using Kaplan-Meier method.

    From Implant to 90 days post-implant procedure

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Number of Participants Having Procedure-related Adverse Events

    From Implant to 90 days post-implant procedure

  • Surgical Staff Utilized for Reveal In-office Implants

    At implant

  • Techniques and Procedures Utilized During Reveal In-office Implants

    At implant

  • Physician Satisfaction With Reveal In-office Implants

    At implant

  • R-wave Amplitude Measurement

    Implant procedure and 30 days post-implant procedure

Interventions

Reveal® DX and Reveal® XT Insertable Cardiac Monitors are implantable patient-activated and automatically-activated monitoring systems that record subcutaneous ECG.

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

All patients recruited for participation in study were indicated for continuous arrhythmia monitoring.

You may qualify if:

  • Patient is indicated for continuous arrhythmia monitoring with an Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM)
  • Patient is willing to undergo implant in clinic setting with only local anesthetic and/or oral anti-anxiety medications for sedation
  • Patient is 18 years of age or older
  • Patient is willing and able to provide consent and authorize the use and disclosure of health information
  • Patient is willing and able to comply with the protocol including the required follow-up

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient has reduced immune function or is otherwise at high risk for infection
  • Patient has had a recent (within 30 days) or otherwise unresolved infection
  • Patient is implanted or indicated for implant with a pacemaker, Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD), Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT), or hemodynamic monitoring system
  • Patient is participating in another clinical study that may have an impact on the study endpoints
  • Patient's life expectancy is less than 1 year
  • Patient is pregnant
  • Patient has unusual thoracic anatomy or scarring at the implant site which may adversely affect the success of the implant procedure
