This study tests a new system where two heart devices—a tiny pacemaker and a shock box under the skin—talk to each other to stop dangerous fast heartbeats. About 297 people with heart rhythm problems are taking part. The goal is to see if the system works safely and effectively w…

This study tests if a device called WATCHMAN FLX, which closes a small pouch in the heart, is a good alternative to daily blood thinners for preventing strokes in people with a common heart rhythm problem called atrial fibrillation. About 3000 participants are involved. The goal …

This study follows 166 people aged 45+ who received the Superion implant to treat lumbar spinal stenosis, a condition that narrows the spine and causes leg pain. The goal is to see if the implant provides lasting symptom relief and avoids complications or additional surgeries ove…

This study tests a treatment called BSJ020R for people whose dialysis fistulas are narrowing or blocking up. The goal is to see if it can keep the fistula open longer without needing another procedure. About 186 adults with mature fistulas that have been working for at least two …

This study compares two treatments for people with a serious type of blood clot in the lungs (pulmonary embolism). Half of the 544 participants will receive standard blood thinners, while the other half will get blood thinners plus a special device that uses ultrasound to help di…

This study follows 228 people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) who received a treatment called FARAPULSE pulsed field ablation. The goal is to see if the procedure is safe and effectively stops abnormal heart rhythms for at least a year. Partici…

This study tests a new device called the Millipede Ring, which is placed inside the heart to help a leaky mitral valve close better. It is for people with moderate to severe functional mitral regurgitation who still have symptoms despite medication. The main goal is to see if the…

This study compares a minimally invasive water vapor treatment (REZŪM) to a two-drug combination for men with an enlarged prostate whose symptoms didn't improve with one drug. The goal is to see which approach better relieves urinary symptoms and preserves sexual function. About …

This study follows over 1,100 people with atrial fibrillation who received a new treatment called FARAPULSE pulsed field ablation. The procedure uses electrical pulses to destroy tiny areas of heart tissue causing irregular rhythm. Researchers are watching for safety issues and h…

This study tests a gel called SpaceIT that is injected between the prostate and rectum before radiation therapy for prostate cancer. The gel creates space to reduce radiation reaching the rectum, aiming to prevent side effects. About 230 men with low- to intermediate-risk prostat…
