Heart Rate Response to Regadenoson and Sudden Cardiac Death
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating regadenoson for Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction and Sudden Cardiac Death. Completed, enrolled 90 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a blunted heart rate response to regadenoson is an independent predictor of sudden cardiac death.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Prior to the implantation of a clinically indicated ICD, the heart rate response to regadenoson will be assessed. Regadenoson will be administered intravenously as a fixed intravenous bolus dose of 400 μg followed by a 5 mL saline flush. Medications (including beta-blockers) will be withheld on the morning of the test. The heart rate and blood pressure will be measured at baseline and every minute after regadenoson bolus for at least 5 minutes and until the heart rate and blood pressure are clearly returning towards baseline.
