NCT ID NCT06577714

First seen Apr 30, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tests a new ultrasound imaging method called electromechanical wave imaging (EWI) to see if it can better locate and understand heart rhythm problems before a standard procedure. About 322 adults scheduled for an electrophysiology study will get an EWI scan first. Half of them will have their EWI results shared with their doctor to help plan the procedure. The goal is to see if EWI improves accuracy and makes the procedure faster and more effective.
