Study summary

Retrospective registry will compare subjects who've undergone a mapping and/or ablation procedure for either ischemic ventricular tachycardia or premature ventricular contraction using an epicardial approach with either manual or remote magnetic navigation. Subjects will be compared with regards to safety, efficacy and mortality.

Read the detailed description

Up to 10 centers in the European Union will be selected to conduct the trial. Once a site is a selected, receives local Ethics Committee approval, and receives Sponsor approval to enroll, the site will begin enrollment. All subjects must meet eligibility criteria and follow protocol and ethics committee requirements regarding informed consent prior to enrollment. Once a subject is enrolled, the site may begin reviewing the subject's medical records and entering data into the electronic data capture system. Once enrollment and retrospective data entry is complete at a site, a monitoring visit will occur where source data verification will occur.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Acute Success

    Characterize acute success rates for both groups. Acute success for VT procedures is defined as non-inducibility of clinical VT and/or other monomorphic VT at the end of the index-procedure. Acute success for PVC procedures is defined as no recurrence and non-inducibility of culprit PVC at the end of the index-procedure.

    Time frame: intra-operative

  2. Procedural Safety: rates of device-and procedure-related serious adverse events

    Assess rates of device-and procedure-related serious adverse events in both groups.

    Time frame: 48 hours post index procedure

Secondary outcomes

  1. Chronic Success

    Characterize recurrence rates for both groups at 1 year post index procedure.

    Time frame: 1 year post index procedure

  2. Chronic Safety: rates of device-or procedure-related serious adverse events

    Characterize rates of device-or procedure-related serious adverse events for both groups at 1 year post index procedure.

    Time frame: 1 year post index procedure

  3. Mortality

    Assess mortality rate for both groups

    Time frame: 1 year post index procedure

  4. Chronic Success

    Characterize recurrence rates for both groups at last follow up.

    Time frame: At last follow up visit, estimated up to 6 years post-procedure for some patients

  5. Chronic Safety: rates of device-or procedure-related serious adverse events

    Characterize rates of device-or procedure-related serious adverse events for both groups at last follow up.

    Time frame: At last follow up visit, estimated up to 6 years post-procedure for some patients
