The FDA has the authority to require sponsors to perform a post-approval study (or studies) at the time of approval of a premarket approval (PMA), humanitarian device exemption (HDE), or product development protocol (PDP) application. Post-approval studies can provide patients, health care professionals, the device industry, the FDA and other stakeholders information on the continued safety and effectiveness (or continued probable benefit, in the case of an HDE) of approved medical devices. This database allows you to search Post-Approval Study information by applicant or device information.

Comparison Group No Control
Analysis Type Descriptive
Study Population Transit. Adolescent B (as adults) : 18-21 yrs, Adult: >21
Detailed Study Protocol Parameters
Study Objectives Observational single arm, non-randomized study and literature review
Study Population Adults referred for ablation of AVNRT.
Sample Size 75 subjects from 10-15 sites
Subjects from medical literature
Key Study Endpoints Device or procedure-related A-V block that persists through discharge;

Device or procedure-related A-V block that persists through discharge and requires the insertion of a permanent pacemaker;

Acute procedural success, defined as absence of recurrence and non- inducibility of the targeted antrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia.
Follow-up Visits and Length of Follow-up 3 months
Discharge and three months.
Interim or Final Data Summary
Interim Results Of the 54 participants, none have had device or procedure related AV block persistent through discharge from the hospital.
Actual Number of Patients Enrolled 75 in study
705 from literature
Actual Number of Sites Enrolled 4
Patient Follow-up Rate 100%
Final Safety Findings Of the 75 participants, none have had AV block persistent through
discharge from the hospital (95% CI = 0-4.8%). There were no subject deaths.

Study and literature combined -
Permanent AV block: 0% (95% CI=0% - 0.5%)
Final Effect Findings Acute procedural success has been reported in 71 of the 74 participants (95.9%) for whom ablation was performed.

Study and literature combined -
Acute procedural success: 93.5% (95% CI=91.5% - 95.1%)
Study Strengths & Weaknesses Both safety and effectiveness objectives were met by a good margin.
Literature review suffers from potential lack of representativeness.
Recommendations for Labeling Changes None
