Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to determine whether MRI guided CRT implantation (using Siemen's software prototype) is superior to standard treatment in terms of CRT response. Data will be collected at enrolment, implant, pre-discharge, 6 weeks and 6 months. The total duration of the investigation will be 6 months.

The primary endpoint will be assessed by calculating the difference in the proportion of responders (>15% reduction in end systolic volume derived from 2-dimensional transthoracic echocardiogram at 6 months post CRT implant).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
No Intervention: Standard CRT implantation

Experimental: MRI guided CRT implantation

Device: Guide CRT Software Prototype
The medical device in the trial is a software programme that allows image fusion of previously acquired MRI images with real-time X-Ray fluoroscopic images in the cardiac catheter laboratory. We are able to use the MRI information to assess the best location to place the left ventricular lead for a CRT device and then superimpose this location onto the real-time X-Ray fluoroscopic images during the left ventricular lead implantation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. >15% reduction in end systolic volume [6 months]

    >15% reduction in end systolic volume derived from 2-dimensional transthoracic echocardiogram at 6 months post CRT implant

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. 5% absolute increase in left ventricular ejection fraction [6 months]

    5% absolute increase in left ventricular ejection fraction as derived from 2D echocardiogram

  2. >10% reduction in end diastolic volume [6 months]

    >10% reduction in end diastolic volume as derived from 2D echocardiogram
