NCT04306978

Brief Summary

The study results will be used to check the hypothesis that CareLink Express remote monitoring system increases the detection rate of asymptomatic AF and allows to change timely the treatment strategy in patients at high risk of thromboembolic events, e.g. anticoagulation therapy onset, electrical cardioversion or/and PVI.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • time (days) from the pacemaker system implantation to the first AF episode detected by ESG or EGM

    the episode should be evaluated by the follow-up clinic physician(s) and meet the appropriate criteria (irregular RR intervals and distinct P waves, ≥30s episode duration)

    24 months

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • thromboembolic events

    24 months

  • hospitalization for cardiovascular events

    24 months

  • the number of non-planned induced visits in the follow-up center

    24 months

  • correction in the medical therapy

    24 months

  • cardioversion

    24 months

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

CareLink Express RM system

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients in the remote monitoring (RM) group will undergo the implantation of Ensura DR MRI SureScan pacing system. Patients in the RM group should visit the main follow-up clinic 12 weeks after discharge, and then the device data will be remotely transmitted to the CareLink Express Network at least once in 3 months. Research personnel will contact patients by telephone once in 6 months. If participants indicate they have experienced a study outcome event (corresponding to the study endpoints), the event will be recorded. If remote transmission or telephone call data require to make clinical decision an in-hospital visit will be induced.

Other: CareLink Express RM system

Standard follow-up

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients in the control group will receive Adapta DR pacing system without remote monitoring using. All patients from the control group should have the first in-hospital visit 12 weeks after pacemaker implantation. Then, the follow-up will be provided according to the standard guidelines

Other: Standard follow-up

Interventions

CareLink Express remote monitoring system consists of implantable pacemaker CareLink Express station for implanted Medtronic cardiac devices and provides remote data transmissions

CareLink Express RM system

Follow-up will be provided according to the standard guidelines (HRS/EHRA Expert Consensus on the Monitoring of Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Devices (CIEDs): Description of Techniques, Indications, Personnel, Frequency and Ethical Considerations; 2008)

Standard follow-up

Eligibility Criteria
