This study looks at whether carbonated (fizzy) water can help people stay steady on their feet better than plain water. Drinking water is known to raise blood pressure and reduce fainting risk, but it's unclear if the bubbles add extra benefit by stretching the stomach. Researche…

This study will look at health records of nearly 1 million hospitalized adults to see if certain medications known to affect heart rhythm actually lead to serious heart problems like cardiac arrest or dangerous arrhythmias. The goal is to find out which patients are truly at risk…

This study is observing 1400 people who get a small heart monitor implanted under their skin. The monitor watches for irregular heartbeats like atrial fibrillation or slow heart rate. Researchers want to see how quickly the device finds these problems and how easy it is to insert…

This study tests whether using a remote heart monitor for 15 days after leaving the emergency room can find dangerous heart rhythms in people who fainted. About 580 adults at medium or high risk for heart problems will be randomly assigned to either standard care or extended moni…

This study looks at people who fainted and are at low or medium risk for heart problems. It compares two common approaches: staying in the hospital for 24 hours with heart monitoring versus going home right away. The goal is to find out which approach is safer and more cost-effec…

This study aims to find genetic heart problems that might explain why some people with epilepsy die suddenly. Researchers will test 600 adults aged 18-50 with epilepsy, seizures, or related events, plus their blood relatives. They use advanced gene sequencing to look for known he…
