New pacemaker promises longer battery, better heart rhythm
NCT ID NCT07356505
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new, smaller pacemaker called Micra AV2 in 150 adults with heart block (a condition where the heart's electrical signals are blocked). The pacemaker is designed to better match the heart's natural rhythm, especially during exercise, and lasts over 15 years. Researchers will check how well it works and if it's safe in everyday life.
