About this study

This is a global, prospective and retrospective, multicenter, single-arm, observational study intended to include patients who will receive/have received CCM therapy with an Impulse Dynamics system, including future CCM technologies (e.g. CCM-D), for a follow-up period of at least 5 years.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients who have /will be implanted with Impulse Dynamics CCM technologies (e.g. CCM or CCM-D when available) as determined by investigators
  • Willing and able to provide informed consent, including for use of data for research purposes (e.g. publication, sub-studies/sub-analyses)

Exclusion criteria

  • Noncompliant patients (e.g. for follow-up visits, medication, etc.) as determined by investigators.
  • Subjects with a mechanical tricuspid valve

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Assess CCM's effect on the rate and length of stay of heart failure (HF) hospitalizations

    Time frame: 1 Year

    Change in the HF hospitalization / urgent HF visit rate and hospital length of stay from 1 year prior to 1 year following index implantation.

  2. Demonstrate the long-term safety of CCM therapy in a real-world setting, by assessing the rate of device- or procedure-related complications.

    Time frame: 5 Years

    Rate of freedom from a composite of device- or procedure-related complication post-index implantation procedure.

    Serious procedure related complications occurring through the end of 30 days following the index procedure.

    Serious CCM device-related complications* occurring through the end of 1-year following the index procedure.

    • excluding lead-related complications

Secondary outcomes

  1. Assess CCM's effect on clinical outcomes

    Time frame: 5 Years

    Composite of all-cause mortality, heart-failure hospitalizations/urgent heart failure visits, progression to LVAD/heart transplant 1-, 3-, and 5-years following the index procedure.

  2. Assess CCM's effect on mortality (all-cause, cardiovascular, and heart failure related)

    Time frame: 5 Year

    All-cause: Observed mortality will be compared to predicted mortality for the subject group according to the Seattle Heart Failure Model (SHFM) and/or Meta-analysis Global Group in Chronic Heart Failure (MAGGIC) at 1-, 3-, and 5-years following the index procedure.

    Cardiovascular related mortality will be assessed at 1-, 3-, and 5-years following the index procedure.

  3. Assess CCM's effect on healthy days at home (HDAH)

    Time frame: 3 Years

    Assessment of HDAH 1 year prior to 3 years following index implantation.

  4. Assess CCM's effect on functional capacity

    Time frame: 5 Year

    Change in NYHA Functional Class from baseline to 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-years following the index procedure.

    Change in 6-minute walk test (6MWT) from baseline to 1 year following the index procedure.

  5. Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ)

    Time frame: 1 Year

    Change in KCCQ score from baseline to 6 months and 1 year after the index procedure. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores showing better health status and lower scores showing worsen health status.

  6. Assess CCM's effect cardiovascular reverse remodeling

    Time frame: 5 Year

    Change in LVEF, LVESV, LVEDV from baseline to 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-years following the index procedure.

  7. Assess CCM's effect QRS duration

    Time frame: 5 Years

    Change in QRS duration from baseline to 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-years following the index procedure.

  8. Assess CCM's systemic effects

    Time frame: 5 Years

    Change in eGFR and BNP from baseline to 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-years following the index procedure.

  9. Assess long-term CCM device-related adverse events and lead related events

    Time frame: 5 Years

    An assessment of the incidence of CCM device-related serious complications and non-serious CCM-device-related observations occurring during the 5-year period following the index procedure.

  10. Assess the dose response of CCM therapy

    Time frame: 5 Year

    Correlation of CCM % and milliamp (mA) delivered with clinical outcomes and health status

  11. Evaluate subject battery charging compliance

    Time frame: 5 Year

    Assess overall battery charging compliance defined as 60 minutes of charging per 10-day period between charging sessions (Expressed as percentage of compliant charging periods per subject over time e.g., number of compliant charging cycles ÷ total expected cycles × 100%).

  12. Assess the effect of ancillary equipment on clinical outcomes

    Time frame: 5 Years

    Impact of ancillary equipment on clinical outcomes at 1- 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-years following the index procedure. Including but not limited to:

    Lead type: style-driven lead, lumenless lead

    Guiding sheath/catheter

  13. Assess CCM clinical outcomes by subject sub-groups

    Time frame: 5 Years

    Assess CCM effectiveness at various timepoints in sub-groups of interest, including but not limited to:

    Male vs female <65 vs ≥ 65-year-old Ischemic vs non-ischemic CRT non-responders Patients with concomitant devices (e.g. CRT, pacemaker, LBBP) Patients with wide, intermediate, narrow QRS Patients with cardiac amyloidosis
