NCT ID NCT06943365

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether a specific antibody in the blood can help diagnose and predict the course of a rare, life-threatening heart condition called short-coupled ventricular fibrillation (SCVF). Researchers will test 300 adults with SCVF for these antibodies and study how they affect heart cells. The goal is to develop a simple blood test to identify the condition and guide treatment.
