New vest-like device could map heart rhythm problems without needles

NCT ID NCT05772182

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

Summary

This study tested a new non-invasive tool called ECG-Imaging that uses many electrodes on the body to create a 3D map of the heart's electrical activity. The goal was to see if it can more accurately locate the source of heart rhythm problems compared to a standard ECG. 362 participants who were already scheduled for an invasive heart procedure took part. The results will show whether this technology can help doctors plan treatments like ablation without needing as many invasive tests.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

ACORYS MAPPING SYSTEM (ECG-Imaging device)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could give doctors a more accurate, non-invasive way to pinpoint the source of heart arrhythmias, potentially improving treatment planning.

What could go wrong

This is a completed diagnostic accuracy study, not a treatment trial. The new mapping system may not prove more accurate than standard methods in all cases.
