About

A third generation, Micra AV2 is now available and proposes increased automaticity and improved AV synchrony algorithms based on computing model. The new algorithms permit the delivery of AV synchronous pacing, improving the automatic AV synchrony at faster heart rates between 80-100 bpm with a maximal upper tracking rate limit of 135 bpm (previously 115-120 bpm in the Micra AV1). Micra AV2 presents also a potential extended longevity of 15.6 years (increased by > 44% in comparison of Micra AV1). Up to now, no clinical study has evaluated the efficacy and safety of Micra AV2 in a real-world setting.

The focus of this study is to characterize chronic ambulatory AV synchrony in patients with high degree AV block and normal sinus rhythm implanted with a Micra AV2 as primary objective to evaluate AV synchrony during exercise as secondary objective.

Full description

Prospective, single-arm, multi-centre clinical study to characterize the chronic efficacy and safety profile of CE approved and market released Micra AV2 A sample size of approximately 150 subjects implanted with a Micra AV2 is required to evaluate the different objectives. A minimal sample size of 50 subjects with persistent 3rd degree AVB and normal sinus node function is required to evaluate the ambulatory AV synchrony at 6-month follow-up.

Primary objective:

Characterize ambulatory AV synchrony in subjects with persistent third degree AV block and normal sinus node function at 6-month post Micra AV2 implant procedure

Secondary objective(s):

1. Characterize the AV synchrony and device behaviour during exercise in subjects with persistent third degree AV block and normal sinus node function at 6-month post implant procedure
2. Characterize the evolution of left ventricular function at 12-month post implant
3. Evaluate the efficacy of the 'Atrial Sensing Setup' at the end of the implant procedure
4. Long-term follow-up (3 years) to evaluate AV synchrony, need for system revision and complication rate including rate of pacing induced cardiomyopathy

Enrollment: 150 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

1. Voluntary written informed consent of the participant or their legally authorized representative has been obtained prior to any screening procedures
