PAREPET-II
Protocol: STUDY00000625
Full Title
Prediction of ARrhythmic Events with Positron Emission Tomography-II (PAREPET-II)
Description
This is a research study which will determine whether a series of tests can predict the
likelihood that your implantable cardiac defibrillator, or ICD, will deliver therapy for a dangerous heart rhythm.

If you choose to participate you will have one initial visit then we will follow-up with you by phone every three months for up to 5 years to check on your heart symptoms.

Study Visits will be in the UB Clinical and Translational Research Center, Downtown Buffalo.

Compensation is available. Your time and effort will be partially compensated by a
$60 gift card which you will receive after all testing is completed to cover the expense of
transportation and parking.
Compensation: No
Eligibility
• Coronary artery disease (by cardiac catheterization or definite myocardial infarction)
• ICD implantation for the primary prevention of SCA
• Optimal medical therapy for heart failure [angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor antagonist (ARA)].
