Comparing Sensitivity and Specificity of Pacemaker ID Application and Cardiac Rhythm Management Device-Finder Application.

Smart phone-based applications to identify cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are extremely useful in circumstances where urgent device interrogation is needed and device identification card is not available. Few studies have provided insight regarding the utility of these applications. We have studied two widely available applications i.e., Pacemaker ID app (PMIDa) or Cardiac Rhythm Management Devices-Finder (CRMD-f) to identiy device manufacturers in CIEDs.

About this study

Smart phone-based applications to identify cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) are extremely useful in circumstances where urgent device interrogation is needed and device identification card is not available. Few studies have provided insight regarding the utility of these applications. We have studied two widely available applications i.e., Pacemaker ID app (PMIDa) or Cardiac Rhythm Management Devices-Finder (CRMD-f) to identiy device manufacturers in CIEDs.

547 patients who underwent CIED implantation from year 2016 - 2020 in our institute were enrolled. There were 438 Medtronic and 109 St. Jude's devices. All chest radiographs were de-identified and resized into 225*225 pixels focusing on the CIED. PMIDa and CRMD-f applications were used to identify CIED. Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value for both applications were calculated and compared.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • All patients undergoing CIED implantation and having xray post-implant at any point and time.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients with CIED for whome Xray was not available.

Treatment and study plan

Device identification using Xray.

Other

PMIDa and CRMD-f applications were used to identify CIED

Primary outcomes

  1. Accuracy sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value for both Pacemaker ID app and CRMD finder app.

    Time frame: Upto 6 months of enrollment

    Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value for both Pacemaker ID app and CRMD finder app. Above mentioned values shall be calculated after analysing data in SPSS and doing cross tabulation. Values will be in percentages.

Secondary outcomes
