Pacemaker lead position may unlock better blood pressure control
NCT ID NCT02909868
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether the position of a pacemaker lead in the right ventricle can improve how well the BackBeat Moderato system controls blood pressure. Five people with hypertension who already have a pacemaker will have their heart pressures and volumes measured with the therapy on and off. The goal is to understand which lead location works best, which could lead to more effective blood pressure management.
