Sound waves may shield heart attack survivors from deadly rhythm problems

NCT ID NCT07587294

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

Summary

This study tests a new use of low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) to calm nerve signals that can trigger dangerous heart rhythms after a heart attack. About 100 adults who recently had a severe heart attack will receive either real or fake ultrasound sessions during and for a week after their emergency heart procedure. Researchers will monitor heart rhythms, inflammation, and heart function to see if this gentle sound-wave treatment is safe and effective.
