Trial Outcomes & Findings for APPROPRIATE - Rate Adaptive Pacing Sensor (NCT NCT00757666)

NCT ID: NCT00757666

Last Updated: 2017-06-14

Results Overview

The APPROPRIATE Study compared differences in functional capacity (peak VO2) between CI patients randomized to receive rate responsive pacing driven by either the minute ventilation (respiration-based) sensor or by an accelerometer (motion-based) sensor. The mean change in functional capactity will be compared against baseline; changes from baseline will be measured.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 month and 2 months post-implant

Population: Data was not analyzed since patient enrollment was ceased and study was prematurely terminated.

The APPROPRIATE Study compared differences in functional capacity (peak VO2) between CI patients randomized to receive rate responsive pacing driven by either the minute ventilation (respiration-based) sensor or by an accelerometer (motion-based) sensor. The mean change in functional capactity will be compared against baseline; changes from baseline will be measured.
