Overview
he Remote Alert Pathway to Optimize Care of Cardiac Implantable Electrical Devices (RAPTOR-CIED) Study is a pragmatic, multi-center, randomized trial with 1:1 patient-level randomization comparing the safety and effectiveness of alert-driven care versus guideline-based care for patients with wireless cardiac implantable electrical devices (CIEDs). The study will be conducted in 2 phases: a Feasibility Phase and a Main Phase. This registration outlines the goals and design features of the Main Phase of the study.
Interventions
- Other Alert-based care
Alert-based care is an alternative strategy for longitudinal management of patients with wireless pacemakers and implantable defibrillators - Other Guideline-based Care
Remote monitoring programming scheduled for alert transmissions, patient-initiated transmissions, and routine transmissions (scheduled to occur every 90 days from the date of enrollment in the study); in-office interrogations on at least an annual basis
Primary outcome measures
- Major adverse cardiac events [Time frame: 2 years]
- Effectiveness [Time frame: 2 Years]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- Adult aged > 18 years
- Clinically stable by investigator assessment
- Has a newly implanted or existing wireless CIED: single, dual-chamber, biventricular, subcutaneous/extravascular, and leadless systems are all eligible, including pacemakers or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs)
- CIED is from one of the 4 major CIED manufacturers in the US market (99% of implants in the US): Medtronic, Boston Scientific, Abbott, Biotronik
- Currently enrolled in remote monitoring as part of standard of care
- Primary clinical electrophysiology follow-up at the enrolling center
- Understands spoken and written English, Spanish, or Portuguese
- Has sufficient cognitive function to answer standardized questions about study rationale and procedures.
Exclusion criteria
- Presence of insertable cardiac monitor, either in isolation or in combination with any other CIED
- Listed for cardiac transplantation prior to enrollment (N.B. if a patient becomes listed for transplantation during the study, they may continue study participation)
- Participation in another study related to novel CIED technology or remote monitoring.
Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
