NCT ID NCT04391465

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how changing heart rate affects blood flow in the brain. Researchers will temporarily pace the hearts of 20 adults already scheduled for a heart procedure, then measure brain blood flow using ultrasound. The goal is to better understand the link between heart rate and brain circulation, not to test a treatment.
