Filter by:The PMCF is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, controlled study of up to 130 patients designed to collect safety and performance data regarding the use of the Adagio VT Cryoablation System in the treatment of recurrent ventricular tachycardia.
When a newborn is diagnosed with tachyarrhythmia, they are generally started on medical therapies, most commonly a beta-blocker, while being observed in an inpatient setting. In most academic institutions, current practice is to provide parental teaching on use of a stethoscope to auscultate their child when there is suspicion for distress, in addition to requiring cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) classes. Fortunately, newer technologies have emerged that allow for capture of cardiac rhythm that may provide a buffer between the infant and the emergency room.
The purpose of this prospective, randomized, double-blinded study is to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of varying doses of intravenous magnesium in the treatment of AFF RVR.
Substrate-based DEEP mapping and activation mapping are the two main techniques used for ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. There is no sufficiently reliable data in the medical scientific literature comparing the extent of applicability, the results of the procedure strategy, and the long-term outcomes between the two mapping strategies. This randomized clinical trial aims to test whether activation mapping is superior to DEEP mapping to reduce ventricular tachycardia recurrence. The primary outcome of the study is to compare the efficacy as a recurrence-free survival rate of ventricular tachycardia, at 6 and 12 months, of substrate-based DEEP mapping versus activation mapping in guiding catheter ablation to prevent VT recurrence.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to test the efficacy of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in treating ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with advanced structural heart disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the efficacy of SBRT compared to catheter ablation (CA) in achieving a ≥ 75% reduction in VT burden at 6 months - What is the comparable safety profile of SBRT vs CA Researchers will compare SBRT and CA (standard of care).
The INTELICE trial is a prospective, multicenter, 1:1 randomized controlled non-inferiority study. It aims to compare a novel intracardiac echography (ICE) catheter and combined ultrasound system with existing commercial ones. The evaluation will be conducted on patients undergoing planned intracardiac interventional process.
This is an exploratory research aiming to accurately identify the site of origin of tachyarrhythmia using Magnetocardiography (MCG), which will have guiding significance for early diagnosis, the formulation of treatment plans and preoperative positioning for radiofrequency ablation.
Evidence for the usefulness of the defibrillator in cases of preserved left ventricular ejection fraction and well-tolerated ventricular tachycardia (without cardiocirculatory arrest or syncope) is lacking, as no previous trials have included such patients. Additionally, sudden death in this particular population is low compared to other subgroups of patients with malignant ventricular arrhythmias. On the other hand, numerous recent retrospective data show that ablation of ventricular tachycardia can reduce mortality, and also clearly reduces the number of recurrences in prospective studies. Finally, a very low rate of sudden death was observed in a multicenter European retrospective study that we conducted, including patients with well-tolerated ventricular tachycardia in structural heart disease with minimally impaired ejection fraction and benefiting from ablation without implantation of defibrillator.
The objective of this study is to determine if there is a meaningful benefit to using the sedative medication dexmedetomidine in the acute treatment of patients with recurrent ventricular arrhythmias, known as electrical storm. This will be a multi-centre, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized trial. Patients with electrical storm will be randomized to receive 48 to 72 hours of dexmedetomidine or placebo as part of their initial treatment in an intensive care unit.
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) are currently recommended for the primary prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with a remote (>6 weeks) myocardial infarction (MI) and a low (≤35%) left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Ventricular tachycardia (VT) and/or ventricular fibrillation (VF), which are responsible for most SCDs, result from the presence of surviving myocytes embedded within fibrotic MI-scar. The presence of these surviving myocytes, as well as their specific arrhythmic characteristics, is not captured by LVEF. Hence, the use of LVEF as a unique risk-stratifier of SCD results in a low proportion (17 to 31%) of appropriate ICD device therapy at 2 years. Consequently, most patients with a prophylactic ICD do not present VT/VF requiring ICD therapy prior to their first-ICD battery depletion. Thus, many patients are exposed to ICD complications, such as inappropriate shocks, without deriving any health benefit. Therefore, the current implantation strategy of prophylactic ICDs, based on LVEF only, needs to be improved in post-MI patients.
