NCT ID NCT04952610
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a nasal spray called etripamil for people with a condition that causes sudden rapid heartbeats (PSVT). Participants, who had been in earlier studies, used the spray themselves at home to stop an episode. The main goal was to see if it was safe and easy to use outside the clinic.
