Single-Lead ICD that spots hidden heart rhythm problems

NCT ID NCT04869527

First seen Jul 09, 2026 · Last updated Jul 10, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

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 the start. The device automatically sends data to a remote monitoring center, which may help doctors manage heart conditions sooner.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
BIOTRONIK ICD with DX Technology
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could improve early detection of atrial fibrillation and reduce complications in people with single-chamber ICDs.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with 56 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The device may not detect all arrhythmias or could have technical issues.
