Filter by:Study objectives: - To assess the impact of mitral valve surgery for mitral regurgitation on ventricular arrhythmic burden and surrogate markers of fibrosis in patients with arrhytmogenic mitral valve prolapse (MVP) from baseline to 6 months after surgery - To characterize the molecular landscape of arrhytmogenic MVP Study design: -Prospective explorative observational study Study population: -90 patients with arrhytmogenic MVP and without arrhytmogenic MVP (controls) eligible for mitral valve surgery for mitral regurgitation will be enrolled. All patients will be evaluated with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging and continuous seven day arrhythmic monitoring before and at 6 months after mitral valve surgery
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).
This study is a first-in-human, prospective, multi-center, pre-market single-arm clinical trial to evaluate the Future Cardia™ ICM.
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. The investigators aim at conducting the first randomized controlled trial testing for the superiority of an AI-guided approach regarding procedural duration.
The goal of this study is to understand the effects of early mobilization after a Z stitch procedure in patients undergoing certain heart-related treatments. The investigators want to find out if allowing patients to move around sooner after their procedure can improve their satisfaction and potentially lead to earlier discharge from the hospital. Type of Study: Clinical Trial Participant Population/Health Conditions: Patients aged 18-99 undergoing specific heart procedures such as atrial fibrillation treatment, atrial flutter treatment, supraventricular tachycardia treatment, diagnostic electrophysiology studies, AV node ablation, or Watchman device placement. Main Questions: Does early mobilization (getting up and moving around sooner) after the Z stitch procedure improve patient satisfaction? Participants will be divided into two groups, and researchers will compare those who have one hour of bedrest with those who have four hours of bedrest after the Z stitch procedure. The investigators want to see if the shorter bedrest period leads to higher patient satisfaction.
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.

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.
Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) is a life threatening heart rhythm that comes from the bottom chambers of the heart (the ventricles) and is a leading cause of sudden cardiac death. The majority of patients that are at risk of VT or suffer a cardiac arrest will have an Internal Cardiac Defibrillator (ICD) in situ to treat the abnormal heart rhythm. The ICD can deliver a painful shock to restore normal heart rhythm but importantly does not treat the underlying cause. Current treatment for the prevention of recurrent VT include catheter ablation (CA) or medication. Long-term results with global 12 month VT-free survival rates with CA are around 50%. The trial is to compare 2 different types of ablation catheter that are used to cauterise small areas of unhealthy tissue within the heart that are responsible for VT: Diamond Temp (DT) and Tacticath/Tactiflex (TF). Our hypothesis is that the DT ablation catheter will provide comparable efficacy and safety for the treatment of VT as the current industry gold standard (TF).
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, double-blind, sponsor unblinded, placebo-controlled, single-dose clinical study of CRD-4730 to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of CRD-4730 when administered as single oral doses to participants with Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT). The study will have 2 cohorts in which participants with CPVT will participate in a 3-period, randomized 2-sequence study. Each participant will receive 2 different doses of CRD-4730 and 1 dose of matching placebo, with each study drug administered as a single dose.
Objective: To explore in our center the feasibility and safety of a SBRT treatment method for VT. Study population: Patients with ventricular tachycardia that are refractory to dose-escalated antiarrhythmic drugs and where catheter ablation has either already been performed or is deemed to be unsuccessful or associated with high risks. Intervention: Patients will be treated with a stereotactic body radiotherapy technique as a single fraction treatment up to a dose of 25 Gy delivered to the VT substrate defined by electrophysiological mapping. Main study endpoints: The primary aim is to explore the feasibility and safety of a SBRT treatment method for refractory VT. Secondary endpoints include an assessment of the efficacy of the treatment, quality of life, late toxicity and overall survival. Patients will have to fill in a quality-of-life questionnaire before and after the radiotherapy treatment. The risk associated with this trial is an increase in toxicity.
