Heart surgery upgrade: zap away bad rhythms while implanting pump
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study tests whether destroying small areas of heart muscle that cause dangerous rhythms (ventricular tachycardia ablation) during LVAD implant surgery can reduce the number of these rhythms after surgery. About 100 adults with advanced heart failure who are getting an LVAD w…

Double shock may save more cardiac arrest victims
Disease control Recruiting nowThis trial tests whether using two defibrillators in sequence, instead of the standard single defibrillator, can improve survival in people whose hearts are in a shockable rhythm but don't respond to the first shock. About 916 adults with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest will be ra…

Could less epinephrine save more lives in cardiac arrest?
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study compares a low cumulative dose of epinephrine (adrenaline) to the standard dose during resuscitation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. About 3,790 adults with a shockable heart rhythm will be enrolled. The goal is to see if using less epinephrine improves survival to…

Could a blast of cold air save your brain after a heart attack?
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study tests whether cooling the brain quickly after a cardiac arrest (using a special nasal device) and then keeping the body cool for 24 hours helps more people survive with full brain function. About 1,000 adults aged 18-79 who have a shockable heart rhythm will be randoml…

Can a sedative stop deadly heart storms?
Symptom relief Recruiting nowThis study tests whether a sedative called dexmedetomidine can help people in the ICU who have a life-threatening heart rhythm problem called electrical storm. About 192 adults will receive either the sedative or a placebo for 2-3 days. The goal is to see if it reduces deaths and…

New study checks if special pacing leads can reliably spot dangerous heart rhythms
Knowledge-focused Recruiting nowThis observational study looks at how signals from a left bundle branch pacing lead change during daily activities and overdrive pacing in 50 people with an ICD or CRT-D. Researchers want to see if these leads can accurately detect ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation. Partici…

New MRI technique could spot hidden heart damage early
Knowledge-focused Recruiting nowThis study will use a new type of cardiac MRI to look at the heart's microscopic structure in 1,000 people—both healthy volunteers and those with various heart conditions. The goal is to see if this advanced imaging can detect early signs of heart damage better than standard test…

Balloon in the aorta: a new hope for cardiac arrest?
Knowledge-focused Recruiting nowThis study tests whether a balloon device, called REBOA, can be safely used by emergency teams outside a hospital to improve blood flow in people whose heart has stopped (cardiac arrest). The balloon is inserted into the main artery and inflated to redirect blood to the heart and…
