Official title
Multicenter Evaluation of Patients Using LATITUDE Monitoring System: Multitude Study
Overview
The Multitude is a registry of patients who receive commercially available CIEDs that remotely communicate through the LATITUDE monitoring system and transfer data to a central database. The registry is designed to constitute a shared environment for the collection, management, analysis and reporting of clinical and diagnostic data, adopted by a network of European scientifically-motivated physicians who use rhythm management diagnostic and therapeutic solutions from Boston Scientific in their clinical practice. The Multitude study will facilitate the sharing of scientific proposals within a large network of researchers, and it will allow researchers to record the experience with medical devices throughout the device and patient lifecycle.
Primary outcome measures
- Mortality [Time frame: 10 years]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Hospitalization [Time frame: 10 years]
- Device therapy [Time frame: 10 years]
- Device-related complications [Time frame: 10 years]
Eligibility criteria
