Solve CRT

Researching a new option for Heart Failure CRT Patients

Heart failure is a serious condition in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood to meet the body’s needs – causing fatigue, shortness of breath and swelling in the legs and ankles. For some, their heart failure causes the heart to beat out of sync, reducing the amount of blood pumped with each heartbeat. Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) may be beneficial in these cases to improve the heart’s rhythm and improve symptoms.

However, traditional CRT does not work for everyone. In fact, 3 out of 1o patients who receive a CRT device don’t benefit from treatment, and 2 out of every 10 patients will have issues related to the wires in these devices. If you still struggle with heart failure symptoms despite having a pacemaker, ICD or CRT device, you may qualify for SOLVE CRT Clinical Study. The study is for the WiSE CRT System, an investigational, wireless device designed to overcome the limitations of traditional CRT devices.

What is the WiSE CRT System?

The WiSE CRT System is an investigational, innovative device developed to overcome the limitations of traditional CRT in heart failure patients.

With the WiSE CRT System, your current pacemaker, ICD or CRT device will pace the right side of the heart. The WiSE CRT System paces the left side at the same time as the right side to potentially improve the heart’s pumping ability and help overcome symptoms of heart failure.

The WiSE CRT System is currently being evaluated at select treatment centers in the U.S., Europe and Australia through the SOLVE-CRT clinical study. If you qualify and choose to join the study, you may receive the WiSE CRT System and all study-related  care at no cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Purpose of a clinical study?

Clinical studies (also called clinical trials) are used to learn about the safety and effectiveness of new medications, medical devices, and medical procedures. Although there are many types of clinical trials, all must conform to strict rules set by local regulatory authorities. These rules help protect the rights and safety of those who volunteer to take part in clinical trials.

Who Might be a candidate for the WiSE CRT System?

If you’re suffering from heart failure symptoms despite having a pacemaker, ICD or CRT device, you might be a candidate to participate in the SOLVE CRT Study and receive the WiSE CRT System.

How many people will participate in the SOLVE Clinical Study?

About 440 people will participate in the study at approximately 45 treatment centers throughout the US, Europe, and Australia.

Who is sponsoring the study?

The study is being sponsored by EBR Systems, Inc. (www.ebrsystemsinc.com), a medical device company headquartered in California, USA
