NCT ID NCT05034432

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 09, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study tests whether destroying small areas of heart tissue that cause abnormal rhythms (ablation) during LVAD implant surgery can reduce dangerous heart rhythms after surgery. About 100 adults with advanced heart failure who are getting an LVAD will be included. The goal is to see if this extra procedure lowers the number of rhythm events and related complications like hospitalization or stroke.
