Lumax Technical Manual 55
The observed complication-free rate was 100.0%. The lower,
exact, one-sided 95% confidence bound for this observed rate is
97.6%. This exceeds the pre-specified rate (90% - δ) required for
demonstrating non-inferiority.
1.6.3.4 Conclusions
The
cumulative enrollment duration is 621.3 months with a mean
duration of 5.1 months. Sixty-one (50.0%) of the patients have
been enrolled for 91-180 days.
The proportion of subjects who are “Not Worsened” while their
device was programmed to OPT was found to be not inferior to
the performance goal of 63% within 12%. In addition, there have
been 0 complications reported regarding the Lumax HF-T V-V
delay feature.
The data received and analyzed demonstrates the general safety
of the Lumax HF-T V-V timing feature, with 0 complications
reported as caused by the feature. Also, the data received and
analyzed demonstrates the effectiveness of the Lumax HF-T V-V
timing feature, by providing evidence of non-inferiority to
simultaneous biventricular pacing in a responder classification.
1.6.4 TRUST Clinical Study
1.6.4.1 Study Overview
The TRUST study is a multi-center, prospective and randomized
trial. The purpose of the study was to demonstrate that the use of
the BIOTRONIK Home Monitoring system (HM) can safely reduce
the number of regularly scheduled office follow up visits,
compared to the conventional method of ICD follow-up. The
assessment consists of comparing the number of in-office follow-
ups for patients with HM (HM group) versus patients without HM
(Control group). With the use of HM, the number of in-office follow
up visits per year could be reduced from an expected five
scheduled office follow up visits (3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 months) to two
visits (3 and 15 months). Additionally, the time from onset to
evaluation of arrhythmias in both groups was compared. It was
expected that evaluation of cardiac events in the HM arm would
occur earlier than those in the Control group.
