Brief summary
The GUIDE-HF IDE clinical trial is intended to demonstrate the effectiveness of the CardioMEMS™ HF System in an expanded patient population including heart failure (HF) patients outside of the present indication, but at risk for future HF events or mortality.
Detailed description
The GUIDE-HF IDE clinical trial is intended to demonstrate the effectiveness of the CardioMEMS™ HF System in an expanded patient population including HF patients outside of the present indication, but at risk for future HF events or mortality. The trial includes patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II, III, or IV HF who have an elevated N-terminal pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) (or an elevated Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP)) and/or a prior HF hospitalization (HFH). The GUIDE-HF IDE trial will include approximately 3600 subjects at approximately 140 North American sites and consists of two arms: a Randomized Arm and a Single Arm.
Interventions
The CardioMEMS™ HF System is comprised of a lead-less, battery-less pressure sensor permanently implanted in the PA, which remotely transmits PA pressure measurements from the patient's home to a secure website. Healthcare professionals are able to access these measurements and associated waveforms to remotely guide individualization of medical management for their patients with chronic HF.

The KCCQ-12 quantifies physical function, symptoms (frequency, severity and recent change), social function, self-efficacy and knowledge, and quality of life over a scale from 0 to 100. An overall summary score (OSS) is derived by averaging scores from each domain, with a higher score reflecting a better health status.

(Single Arm) NT-proBNP (or BNP) [Mixed Model Analysis]
Either change in N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) or Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) measurements at 6 months and 12 months visits from baseline.
Time frame: 12 months post-implantation
Population: Either BNP or NT-proBNP levels were measured at baseline, 6 months and 12 months in each qualification criteria group. Change from baseline at 12 months were analyzed using mixed model analysis.
