About this trial

CMR GUIDE DCM is a randomized controlled trial with a registry for non-randomized patients.

Patients enrolled will have non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM) with mild to severe Left Ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction with replacement fibrosis identified on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR).

954 patients will be randomised from 50 sites across 4-6 countries worldwide to receive an implantable defibrillator (ICD) or implantable loop recorder (ILR).

Device and clinical follow-up will be performed at 3, 6, 12, 24, 36 months and at end of study.

Quality of life assessed by Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire

The Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire is a 23-item, self-administered instrument that quantifies physical function, symptoms (frequency, severity and recent change), social function, self-efficacy and knowledge, and quality of life. An overall summary score can be derived from the above 23 items which will be between 0-100. A higher score reflects a better health status.

Time frame
Measured at 3, 6, 12, 24, 36 months through to study completion
4

Number of Participants who have a Heart Failure related hospitalisation

Time frame
Through to study completion, an average of 4 years
