Computer heart model aims to zap dangerous rhythms faster
NCT ID NCT03536052
Summary
This study tested a new computer simulation, called a 'virtual heart,' to help doctors find the best spots to treat dangerous, fast heartbeats (ventricular tachycardia) in people with scarred hearts. The goal was to see if using this model could make the treatment procedure more effective and potentially faster. Ten patients who were already scheduled for a standard ablation procedure participated.
