Ventricular arrhythmias due to cardiac ryanodine receptor calcium release deficiency syndrome

This trial tests a special implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) that uses a single lead to sense both heart chambers, aiming to detect atrial fibrillation and other arrhythmias early. It includes 56 people who need a single-chamber ICD and are in normal sinus rhythm at th…

This study tested whether permanent pacemakers can be safely implanted using only ultrasound (transthoracic echocardiography) instead of traditional X-ray guidance. Thirty-one adults with arrhythmias who needed a pacemaker took part. The goal was to see if the procedure could be …

This study tested a procedure that blocks certain nerves to the heart in 18 people with life-threatening, uncontrollable heart rhythm problems (called electrical storm). The goal was to see if it could reduce dangerous heart episodes and the need for defibrillator shocks. The app…

This study tested a new type of wire (lead) for implantable heart devices that deliver shocks to stop dangerous fast heart rhythms. Researchers checked how safe and effective the lead was in 998 people who needed a defibrillator or heart failure device. The lead was placed in a s…

This study tested a pacemaker feature called AutoAdapt that automatically adjusts timing settings to help the heart pump better. It involved 198 people with heart failure who needed a special pacemaker. The goal was to see if this smart feature improves symptoms, reduces hospital…

This trial tests whether a wearable patch called MEMO Patch V2 can detect heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias) more effectively than the standard 24-hour Holter monitor. Adults with symptoms like palpitations or dizziness, or those who have had a stroke of unknown cause, will wea…

This study investigates whether an Apple Watch can accurately detect heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias) in children aged 6 to 21 who are already scheduled for standard heart monitoring. Researchers will compare the watch's ECG and heart rate readings to those from conventional c…

This study tested whether two wearable devices—the Apple Watch and the Skylab CART-I ring—can accurately detect atrial fibrillation and other irregular heart rhythms compared to the standard 12-lead ECG. Researchers recruited 500 adults from UK cardiology clinics. Each participan…

This study tested a non-invasive mapping system (Cardioinsight®) to help doctors treat heart rhythm disorders. It included 492 patients who needed ablation, pacemaker implantation, or risk assessment for sudden death. The goal was to see if the mapping system improves outcomes co…

This study tested whether an iPhone ECG device (AliveCor) can accurately measure the QT interval of the heart compared to a standard 12-lead ECG. Researchers studied 29 hospitalized patients starting medications that can affect the QT interval. The goal was to see if the iPhone r…

This study tested a new non-invasive tool called ECG-Imaging that uses many electrodes on the body to create a 3D map of the heart's electrical activity. The goal was to see if it can more accurately locate the source of heart rhythm problems compared to a standard ECG. 362 parti…

This study looked at whether a 12-week virtual exercise program could help women with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) improve their physical fitness, quality of life, and mental health. Twenty women took part, doing either high-intensity interval training (HIIT) or…

This study aims to establish national reference levels for radiation exposure during X-ray guided procedures to correct heart rhythm disorders, such as pacemaker insertions and ablations. Researchers will collect radiation dose data from over 4,000 adult patients undergoing these…

This study checks how well a small, wearable heart monitor (Zio monitor) works when worn for up to 30 days. About 150 adults will wear the device to see how long it stays on, how much usable heart data it records, and if it causes any skin irritation. The goal is to make sure the…

This study tests whether wearing a heart monitor for 14 days can detect dangerous heart rhythms in people with mitral valve prolapse (a common heart valve condition) better than the usual 24-hour test. About 60 adults with MVP will wear a patch monitor for two weeks. The goal is …

This study looked at whether a special mapping tool called vMap can help doctors perform heart ablations more efficiently for people with irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias). Researchers tracked 112 patients to see if using vMap reduced procedure time and improved success rates. T…

This study looked at how well a new heart monitor (Assert-IQ) detects atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) in people who have had a heart ablation procedure. 151 participants wore the monitor as part of their normal care. Researchers compared the monitor's readings to a s…

This study used computer simulations to compare three types of radiation (photons, protons, and carbon ions) for treating a dangerous heart rhythm called ventricular tachycardia. Researchers created treatment plans for 23 patients who were already scheduled for standard catheter …

This study tracked 1,826 people who received a small implantable heart monitor (Confirm Rx) to check for irregular heartbeats. Over 12 months, researchers recorded how often the device caused serious problems and how well it worked in daily life. The goal was to see if the monito…

This completed registry study followed over 5,000 people with heart rhythm disorders who received Abbott devices during standard procedures. The goal was to collect real-world data on safety and how well the devices work. No new treatments were tested; instead, the study observed…

This completed study looked at how the heart medication amiodarone behaves in children aged 0 to 18 with heart rhythm disorders. Researchers took blood samples from 57 children to measure drug levels and understand how the body processes it. The goal was to find the best dose for…

This completed early-stage study looked at whether a single dose of HSK3486, an anesthesia drug, changes the heart's electrical activity in 48 healthy adults aged 18 to 45. The main goal was to measure any effects on heart repolarization (QTc interval) and check for side effects.…

This study used a special brain imaging technique called near-infrared spectroscopy to see how the brain responds to pain and sounds while people are under general anesthesia. 44 healthy volunteers aged 12-30 were given either a painkiller (remifentanil) or a placebo. The goal wa…

This study tested a new computer algorithm that analyzes heart signals during a procedure called ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). The goal was to see if the system could collect and process these signals to help doctors better understan…

This completed study from the University of São Paulo measured physical activity levels and quality of life in 100 adults with cardiac arrhythmias. Researchers used questionnaires to see how active patients were and how they felt physically and mentally. The goal was to understan…
