BRADYCARDIA

This study tested a new type of pacemaker that doesn't use wires (leads) to help both the upper and lower chambers of the heart beat in sync. It involved 464 people with slow heart rhythms who needed a pacemaker. The main goals were to see if the device was safe and worked well a…

This study tested a new type of pacemaker that doesn't need wires (leads) to connect to the heart. It was implanted directly into the heart in over 1,200 people with slow heart rhythms. The goal was to see if it is safe and works well. The study found that most patients had no se…

This study tracked 802 people with bradycardia (slow heart rate) who received a tiny, leadless pacemaker called Micra AV, implanted directly into the heart via a leg vein. The goal was to monitor safety and how well it provides synchronized pacing over 3 years. Researchers measur…

This study tested whether Medtronic SureScan pacemakers and defibrillators are safe during 3.0T MRI scans anywhere on the body. 64 adults with these devices received an MRI scan and were followed for one month. The goal was to see if any serious problems occurred, such as device …

This study tested a special pacemaker system designed to be safe during MRI scans. 484 people with slow heartbeats who needed a pacemaker took part. The pacemaker and its wires were implanted, and then some participants had an MRI of their head and lower back. The study found tha…

This study tested whether an artificial intelligence algorithm (ZywieAI) can accurately analyze heart rhythm data collected from a wearable sensor (ZywieZ3) worn for 24 hours. The sensor was placed in non-traditional positions on the chest. Researchers compared the AI's findings …

This study looked at whether a swaddle blanket with a gentle abdominal band can reduce acid reflux, breathing pauses, heart rate drops, and low oxygen levels in premature infants. About 50 babies in the NICU were observed to see if the blanket helped. The goal was to find a simpl…

This study compared two sedatives, dexmedetomidine and propofol, in 100 high-risk patients undergoing ERCP. The goal was to see which drug causes fewer breathing and heart problems. Researchers monitored vital signs closely to find the safer option for these vulnerable patients.

This study looked at whether ondansetron, a drug often used for nausea, can reduce dangerous drops in blood pressure and heart rate in older adults (65+) undergoing spinal anesthesia for urologic surgery. Researchers tracked 140 patients to see if those who received ondansetron h…

This study tested two different drug combinations for pain relief after stoma reversal surgery. 86 adults received either ropivacaine plus dexamethasone or ropivacaine plus dexmedetomidine in a nerve block. The goal was to see which combination provides longer pain relief and red…

This small, completed study tested whether special pacing signals from a pacemaker could help control blood pressure in people with slow heartbeats. Five adults who needed a pacemaker or similar device took part. Researchers measured blood pressure and heart function during brief…

This study looks at whether special pacing signals from a pacemaker can improve heart function and lower blood pressure in people who need a pacemaker and also have high blood pressure. Researchers will measure heart pressure and volume using a thin catheter inside the heart. The…
