UHF-ECG for Diagnosing Ventricular Electrical Dyssynchrony

This study is looking at a new way to diagnose a heart condition called ventricular electrical dyssynchrony (VED) using a special heart test called Ultra-High Frequency Electrocardiogram (UHF-ECG). Researchers want to see how well the UHF-ECG compares to the standard 12-lead ECG in patients who have bradycardia (slow heart rate) or heart failure and are scheduled to get a pacemaker. You might be able to join if you are an adult with bradycardia or heart failure and are scheduled for your first pacemaker implant. The study will be considered successful if the UHF-ECG results match the standard ECG results. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is an observational study planning to enroll 360 participants. It compares the UHF-ECG device to a standard ECG.
What's involved
You would undergo an Ultra High Frequency Electrocardiogram (UHF-ECG) before your pacemaker procedure.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The primary endpoint is measured pre-procedure, so long-term follow-up is not specified.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Adults with bradycardia or heart failure scheduled for first time pacemaker implant (including CRT/CSP) with one of the following: Bradycardia with ventricular synchrony and QRS duration \<= 110 ms, Bradycardia with LBBB, Bradycardia with RBBB, Bradycardia with other IVCD necessitating intervention, or Heart failure with LBBB
Understands the nature of the study and is willing to comply with all study requirements.
Provides written informed consent.
A negative pregnancy test prior to the procedure for participants of child-bearing potential.

Exclusion

Complete AV block (3rd-degree AV block) without a stable escape rhythm or other circumstances where there is no measurable QRS.
Subjects with a previous or current pacemaker or defibrillator implant.
Anatomical or other conditions that may make a 12-lead ECG difficult to obtain, such as an allergy to components of the ECG pads, burns, open wounds, etc.
Currently enrolled in another investigational device or drug trial that has not completed the active treatment phase and/or would conflict with this study.
Other co-morbid condition(s) that could limit the participant's ability to participate in the study or to comply with study requirements or impact the scientific integrity of the study.
