New heart scanner could improve pacemaker decisions

NCT ID NCT06641362

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new type of electrocardiogram (UHF-ECG) that uses ultra-high frequency waves to detect when the heart's lower chambers are not beating in sync. Researchers will compare it to the standard 12-lead ECG in 360 adults with slow heart rate or heart failure who are scheduled to get a pacemaker. The goal is to see if the new device is safer and more accurate at diagnosing this coordination problem, which could help doctors choose the right pacemaker settings.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Ultra-High Frequency Electrocardiogram (UHF-ECG) device
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a more accurate way to diagnose heart coordination problems, helping doctors decide on the best pacemaker treatment.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage device study with 360 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The new ECG may not be significantly better than the standard one.
