New heart sync procedure aims to help those waiting for transplants

NCT ID NCT07332871

Summary

This study is testing whether adding a special pacing technique and a minor ablation procedure to a standard heart defibrillator implant can improve outcomes for people with very severe heart failure and a permanent irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation). The participants are all patients who are already on the waiting list for a heart transplant or a mechanical heart pump. Researchers will compare the new combined approach against just getting the standard defibrillator to see if it reduces hospital stays and improves survival over one year.
