New pacing technique aims to keep hearts pumping stronger
NCT ID NCT07585799
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares a new pacing method called conduction system pacing (CSP) to standard pacing for people with a slow heart rate and a wide QRS pattern on their ECG. The goal is to see if CSP better preserves the heart's pumping ability over one year. About 120 adults who need a permanent pacemaker will take part.
