Observation of Clinical Routine Care for Patients With BIOTRONIK Implantable Cardiac Monitors (ICMs)

This registry is performed for the long-term assessment of outcome, performance and residual safety aspects of the BIOMONITOR III and possible successors in a real-life clinical set-up. In addition, this registry is set up in a way that it may also be used as a platform for submodules to investigate additional scientific and regulatory aspects while minimizing the additional effort for the investigational sites and patients.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Time to diagnosis

    Time frame: The time to a relevant diagnosis can vary significantly. The time period starts with the insertion of the device.

    Device is intended to detect rare arrhythmias. Time to detect this relevant arrhythmia will be recorded.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Insertion procedure and success

    Time frame: Data on BIOMONITOR insertion procedure and success rate are collected at day of insertion.

    Information on the insertion procedure (Operation time, handling of the BIOMONITOR incl. incision and insertion tool); Success rate of insertions.

Other outcomes

  1. Sensing and noise

    Time frame: Data will be collected throughout the entire registry, i.e. until February 2023 (Last patient out).

    Quality of sensing Amplitude (Millivolt) and electrical noise (%) detected by the BIOMONITOR.

  2. Inspection results of the insertion site

    Time frame: Data will be collected throughout the entire registry, i.e. until February 2023 (Last patient out).

    Rating of wound healing and cosmetic outcome by the physician/patient (5-level scale).

  3. Patient contentment regarding BIOMONITOR wearability

    Time frame: Data will be collected throughout the entire registry, i.e. until February 2023 (Last patient out).

    Patients opinion about the wearing comfort (5-level-scale).

  4. Device migration

    Time frame: Data will be collected throughout the entire registry, i.e. until February 2023 (Last patient out).

    Assessement whether the BIOMONITOR migrates under the skin.

  5. Diagnosis and clinical actions after arrhythmia detection

    Time frame: Data will be collected throughout the entire registry, i.e. until February 2023 (Last patient out).

    Documentation whether the BIOMONITOR helps to detect arrhythmias. Documentation of therapies used to treat these arrhythmias and whether the BIOMONITOR helps to monitor therapy success.

  6. Explantation / deactivation / exchange information of the BIOMONITOR

    Time frame: Data will be collected throughout the entire registry, i.e. until February 2023 (Last patient out).

    Collect information about explantation, deactivation and exchanges of the BIOMONITOR, such as number, reason, and data on procedure.

  7. Adverse Events

    Time frame: Data will be collected throughout the entire registry, i.e. until February 2023 (Last patient out).

    Collect and analyze adverse events.

  8. Device Deficiencies

    Time frame: Data will be collected throughout the entire registry, i.e. until February 2023 (Last patient out).

    Collect and analyze device deficiencies. Calculate rate (frequency) of device deficiencies.

  9. Documentation of imaging techniques, if applied.

    Time frame: Data will be collected throughout the entire registry, i.e. until February 2023 (Last patient out).

    Documentation if patients underwent any MRI examinations or mammography. Documentation of exact kind of examination and occurrences with regard to the BIOMONITOR.
