Magnetic pulses may tame deadly heart storms
NCT ID NCT05599022
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a non-invasive magnetic stimulation device can reduce dangerous heart rhythm episodes in people with ventricular tachycardia storm. About 60 adults who have had multiple episodes despite medication will receive either real or sham stimulation. The goal is to see if the treatment lowers the number of heart rhythm events in the first 24 hours.
