Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study is intended to demonstrate the safe implant of small receiver-electrodes into the endocardial surface of the left ventricle and to demonstrate its utility in providing cardiac resynchronization therapy in heart failure patients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: WiCS-LV system
N/A

Detailed Description

Eligible patients will undergo an acoustic window assessment using transthoracic echocardiography. Patients with adequate acoustic windows will undergo implantation of the WiCS-LV system.

Patients will undergo evaluations pre-hospital discharge, and at one month, 3 months, and 6 months post implantation. Extended follow-up will be obtained via a registry at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years post implantation.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of patients with device-related adverse events as a measure of safety [24 hour peri-operative and one month]

      Device-related adverse events are those in which the WiCS-LV system is directly or indirectly responsible.

    2. Number of patients with procedure-related adverse events as a measure of safety [24 hour perioperative and one month]

      Procedure-related adverse events are those which occur during the WiCS-LV system implant procedure.

    3. Bi-ventricular pacing capture [one month]

      Bi-ventricular pacing capture documented on 12-lead EKG

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of patients with device-related adverse events as a measure of safety [6 months]

      Device-related adverse events are those in which the WiCS-LV system is directly or indirectly responsible.

    2. Number of patients with serious adverse events as a measure of safety [6 months]

    3. Bi-ventricular pacing capture [6 months]

      Bi-ventricular pacing capture documented on 12-lead EKG

    4. Clinical composite score [6 months]

      Composite of all cause mortality, heart failure hospitalization, NYHA class, and patient global assessment

    5. Change in echocardiographic indices [6 months]

      change in left-ventricular end-systolic volume, left ventricular end-diastolic volume, and ejection fraction

    Eligibility Criteria

    Criteria

    Ages Eligible for Study:
    18 Years to 75 Years
    Sexes Eligible for Study:
    All
    Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
    No
    Inclusion Criteria:

    Patients with standard indications for CRT based upon the most recent ESC/EHRA guidelines

    AND meeting criteria for one of these two categories:
    1. Patients with previously implanted pacemakers or ICD's and meeting standard indications for CRT but in whom standard CRT is not advisable due to known high risk - referred to as "upgrades". Justifications for not using standard CRT must be documented in a CRF.

    2. Patients in whom coronary sinus lead implantation or attempted implantation for CRT has failed to provide demonstrable therapy benefit - referred to as "untreated"

    Exclusion Criteria:
    1. Inability to comply with the study follow-up or other study requirements

    2. History of chronic alcohol/drug abuse and currently using alcohol/drugs

    3. Non-ambulatory (or unstable) NYHA class 4

    4. Contraindication to heparin

    5. Contraindication to both chronic anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents

    6. Triple anticoagulation therapy (warfarin, clopidogrel, ASA, and other agents)

    7. Thrombocytopenia (platelet count <150,000)

    8. Contraindication to iodinated contrast agents

    9. Intracardiac thrombus by transesophageal echocardiography

    10. Age less than 18 years or greater than 75

    11. Attempted IPG implant within 3 days

    12. Life expectancy of less than 12 months

    13. Chronic hemodialysis

    14. Stage 4 or 5 renal dysfunction defined as GFR <30

    15. Grade 4 mitral valve regurgitation

    16. Myocardial infarction within one month

    17. Major cardiac surgery within one month

    18. History of a pericardial effusion in prior procedures

    19. Female of childbearing potential, pregnant, or breastfeeding (a pregnancy test will be obtained where applicable)

    20. Non-cardiac implanted electrical stimulation therapy devices
