New heart device aims to stop deadly rhythms in heart failure patients
NCT ID NCT05855135
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new device that combines two heart therapies: one to strengthen heartbeats and another to stop dangerous rhythms. About 300 adults with heart failure and a weak heart pump will get the device. Researchers will check if it safely converts life-threatening heart rhythms and reduces unnecessary shocks over two years.
