Optimization of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy by Non-Invasive Imaging of Cardiac Electrophysiology: A Pilot Study


Sponsor

Medical University Innsbruck

Enrollment

25 participants

Start Date

Jan 1, 2020

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The principal aim is to analyze total left and right ventricular activation time in different CRT device programming algorithms (SyncAV) measured by non-invasive electrophysiology


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study uses a specialized heart imaging technique (called cardiac mapping from MRI data) to find the most effective programming settings for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) devices — pacemaker-like devices used to improve the pumping function of the heart in people with heart failure and electrical conduction problems. **You may be eligible if...** - You have had a CRT device implanted (CRT-D or CRT-P) that includes the SyncAV programming feature - You have left bundle branch block (a specific electrical problem in the heart) - Your heart's electrical conduction time (PQ interval) was 250 ms or less before implantation - You are able to safely have a cardiac MRI **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have high-grade heart block requiring continuous pacing - You have any contraindication to MRI (claustrophobia, certain implants, etc.) - Your heart failure is at a very advanced stage (NYHA class IV) or you are currently unstable - You are pregnant or a woman who could become pregnant - Your life expectancy is less than 1 year - You have a substance use disorder Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
