Filter by:The aim of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of STAR (Stereotactic Antiarrhythmic Radiotherapy) in patients with VT (ventricular tachycardia) who are unresponsive to standard treatments. Additionally, the planned study aims to provide further insights into the effects of STAR on VT burden, ICD interventions, and insights regarding late toxicities, particularly those related to the heart, which are currently not well understood.
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) affects up to 3% of the general population and a small subset of patients is at risk for ventricular arrhythmias. This subgroup is referred to as AMVP (arrhythmic MVP) and was recently defined using the following criteria: (1) Presence of MVP), (2) Ventricular arrhythmia that is either frequent (≥5% total premature ventricular contraction (PVC) burden on Holter) or complex (non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (nsVT), ventricular tachycardia (VT), or ventricular fibrillation (VF)), and (3) The absence of any other well-defined arrhythmic substrate. Currently, diagnosis is often based on repeated 24-hour Holter monitoring. However, the ventricular arrhythmia burden varies from day-to-day and long-term rhythm monitoring has shown in other pathologies to increase the diagnostic yield with up to 200% (from 22.5% on 24h to 75.3% on 14 days). This pilot study aims to study the diagnostic yield of long-term rhythm monitoring in patients with MVP as well as the day-to-day variability of ventricular arrhythmias to facilitate power calculation for a future large-scale prospective registry.
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 goal of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical characteristics of patients undergoing permanent cardiac pacing and to compare procedural efficacy and safety of different implantation approaches in the clinical practice of the participating centres. The contribution of non-fluoroscopic anatomical and electrophysiological reconstruction systems to device implantation procedures will also be evaluated. Participants [patients over 18 years old with an indication to receive a definitive pacemaker/intracardiac defibrillator implant] will receive a permanent cardiac pacing implant as requested according to European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines; the investigators will evaluate procedural efficacy and safety of different implantation approaches.
This is a prospective safety and feasibility study to evaluate the safety of the FieldForce™ Ablation system in patients with ventricular arrhythmia divided into two groups: VT (VCAS-I) and frequent premature ventricular complex (VCAS-II).
Two-parallel groups randomized, single-blinded, multi-center phase III controlled trial in patients with chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy to assess the efficacy of colchicine and associated prospective registry to assess the prognostic value of positive genetic testing in this population.
This study will assess the feasibility of performing pre-hospital resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) as an adjunct to conventional Advanced Life Support (ALS) in patients suffering from non-traumatic out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). As well as providing valuable insights into the technical feasibility of performing this procedure as part of a resuscitation attempt, the study will also document the beneficial physiological effects of REBOA in this group of patients.
The CHANNELED-Registry is a multicenter retrospective study to (1) systematically assess the mechanism and origin of ventricular tachycardia in patients with end-stage heart failure carrying an left ventricular assist device (LVAD) and (2) to evaluate procedural parameters and outcome of ventricular tachycardia ablation in this special subset of patients.
Over the last decade, radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has become an established treatment for ventricular arrhythmias (VA). Due to the challenging nature of visualizing lesion formation in real time and ensuring an effective transmural lesion, different surrogate measures of lesion quality have been used. The Ablation Index (AI) is a variable incorporating power delivery in its formula and combining it with CF and time in a weighted equation which aims at allowing for a more precise estimation of lesion depth and quality when ablating VAs. AI guidance has previously been shown to improve outcomes in atrial and ventricular ablation in patients with premature ventricular complexes (PVC). However research on outcomes following AI-guidance for VT ablation specifically in patients with structural disease and prior myocardial infarction remains sparse. We aim at conducting a prospective observational multicenter registry investigating the efficacy and safety of AI-guided VA ablation in patient with ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy.
The investigation of biomarkers for immune status and metabolic state, as well as host microbiota composition, in patients with ventricular arrhythmias before and after radiofrequency ablation, can provide new insights for specific and personalized treatment. This can help establish early prediction and prognosis models and provide a basis for clinically effective diagnosis and treatment.
