CMR-ICD: Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Guidance of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Implantation in Non-ischemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Patients with diagnostic CMR images for assessment of LGE/fibrosis and evidence/presence of non-ischaemic myocardial fibrosis/scar will be randomized to the following treatment groups in a 1:1 ratio: ICD group or Optimal HF care group.
Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
|
N/A |
Detailed Description
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the hypothesis that implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy would decrease the risk of death from any cause in comparison to optimal heart failure (HF) care without ICD insertion in patients with NIDCM, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤35% and presence of myocardial fibrosis on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: ICD group Patients receiving OMT and ICD or cardiac resynchronization therapy with a defibrillator (CRT-D) if indicated. |
Other: ICD/CRT-D implantation
ICD/CRT-D implantation (if indicated)
|
No Intervention: Optimal HF care group Patients receiving OMT and CRT pacemaker (CRT-P) implantation without a defibrillator if indicated. Patients without CRT indication will receive an ICM for detection of malignant VAs. |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Death from any cause [Day 0]
Death from any causes during follow-up - after discharge.
