Cardiac rhythm disease

This study tests two ways of measuring magnesium in the blood to personalize magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) dosing for children after heart surgery. Low magnesium levels can lead to heart rhythm problems and kidney injury. One method measures total magnesium, while the other measures …

This early-stage trial tests whether relaxin, a natural hormone given as a daily injection, can reduce the burden of atrial fibrillation (AF) in 208 veterans who have not responded to standard medications and are scheduled for catheter ablation. The study aims to see if relaxin c…

This study will see if community pharmacies can effectively screen people aged 65 and older for atrial fibrillation, a heart condition that raises stroke risk. Trained pharmacists will use a small, portable ECG device to record a 30-second heart reading. If the result is abnormal…

This study will enroll 5000 adults to see if a one-minute, single-lead ECG, analyzed by machine learning, can detect heart conditions like high blood pressure, heart failure, and diabetes. Participants will have their ECG recorded twice and compared with full medical exams. The g…

This trial tests whether placing a small catheter near the breastbone to deliver local anesthetic can reduce pain after coronary artery bypass surgery. Half of the participants will receive this catheter-based pain relief, while the other half gets standard care. Researchers will…

Researchers at Assiut University Children Hospital are studying how often children who come to the emergency department have an abnormal heart rhythm. The study includes children aged 1 month to 18 years who arrive with symptoms such as palpitations, chest pain, fainting, or trou…

This study observes how supply chain problems affect the availability of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) catheters, which are used during certain heart procedures. Researchers will track real-world procurement attempts, including delays, cancellations, and substitutions, to s…

This study follows 25,000 people referred to a specialized heart clinic with symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath. Researchers will track which heart conditions are actually diagnosed and how patients are evaluated. The goal is to improve diagnostic accuracy and unders…

This study looks at whether re-sterilized (reprocessed) catheters work as well as new ones for heart ablation procedures. About 200 adults needing this treatment will be randomly assigned to get either a new or a reprocessed catheter. Researchers will compare how long the procedu…

This study will measure various biomarkers in 200 people with certain heart rhythm problems (ventricular tachycardia, premature ventricular contractions, and AVNRT) who are scheduled for a catheter ablation procedure. The goal is to see if these biomarkers are linked to the speci…

This study tests a new questionnaire called PET (Patient Experience in Telehealth) to see if it accurately measures how patients feel about telemedicine visits. Researchers will ask 200 adults who had a telemedicine appointment at an Italian hospital to fill out the survey. The g…

This study tests a small, sticky patch that records heart rhythms in hospitalized patients who need continuous monitoring. The patch sends data to a central system for real-time alerts and later review. Researchers want to see if it helps doctors make faster decisions about treat…

This study looks at whether people with certain heart rhythm disorders also carry genetic variants linked to a rare muscle condition called non-dystrophic myotonia. Researchers will review medical records of 570 participants and invite some for a neurological exam and electromyog…

This study will follow 400 people receiving a stem cell transplant to see how often they develop heart problems like heart attacks, irregular heartbeat, or heart failure. Researchers will use heart scans, blood tests, and other tools to find early warning signs. The goal is to be…
