Investigator Sponsored Research (ISR) Grants – CRMDx
The BSC ISR Program provides support for research that advances medical and scientific knowledge about our products and that generates promising medical interventions. This global program is open to all researchers who are interested in conducting their own research. The Boston Scientific CRMDx division is specifically interested in, but not limited to, funding studies that include the below topics:
There is broad interest in investigations of Cardiac Management and Diagnostics devices in historically underrepresented populations, specifically in the following areas:
Subcutaneous ICD
- Methods to assure good device placement during implant
- S-ICD IAS rates with the most modern device software and techniques of implantation
- Patient choice of defibrillator in shared decision making
Conduction System Pacing
- Experience and outcomes of left bundle branch area pacing with stylet driven leads
- Data to support algorithm verification, optimization, and development in LBBAP
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in LBBAP and concomitant use cases (mixed manufacturer lead and pulse generator set ups, with other cardiac devices present, etc).
Diagnostics
- Evaluating the timeliness, accuracy, and actionable reporting of cardiac diagnostic devices
- Determining the impact of device data and AI on workflow and practice efficiency
- Selecting appropriate modality selection for short- vs long-term monitoring
- Exploring the use of ICM for post-ablation monitoring – prospective analyses
HeartLogic™
- Clinical and economic outcomes associated with HeartLogic patient monitoring with treatment and alert response protocols
- Workflow and data management: logistics of HeartLogic integration into clinic workflow and relationship to efficiency and outcomes
- HeartLogic utility for EP care pathways, e.g. relationship of HeartLogic with arrhythmias, monitoring or predicting response to treatments/device therapy, and potential to guide EP interventions
