View clinical trials related to Ventricular Tachycardia.
Filter by:Ventricular Tachycardia storm is a medical emergency characterized by three or more episodes of ventricular arrhythmia within 24 hours and associated with a significantly increased mortality and massive health resource utilization. Several therapies are utilized including sympathetic blockade (through deep sedation and beta blockers), antiarrhythmic drugs, implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) reprograming where applicable, and catheter ablation. Despite standard intervention, mortality rates remain high and additional therapeutic options are actively being investigated. The overall objective of this proposal is to investigate whether transcutaneous magnetic stimulation designed to inhibit the left stellate ganglion can be used in this population. This is a single-center, randomized, sham-controlled trial to assess the efficacy of transcutaneous magnetic stimulation of the left stellate ganglion to treat patients with ventricular tachycardia storm.
The main aim is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the iD-System™, One-handed Disposable Internal Defibrillation System The device is made for manual defibrillation during intra-thoracic procedure, by transferring a shock from a defibrillation device to the patient's heart, in combination with the iD-Electrode. The device will be used when the patient reaches a stage of ventricular fibrillation or rapid ventricular tachycardia during cardiac surgery.
The Ripple VT-1 Study is a prospective clinical trial that aims to investigate if catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia in patients with ischaemic heart disease can be effectively performed using Ripple Mapping.
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is one of the major causes of mortality in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD). Risk stratification for sudden cardiac death in this patient group is challenging and at the current moment there are no clear guidelines on implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation for primary prevention of SCD in this young patient population. The reason for this is the fact that this is a heterogenous group of patients and SCD is a relatively rare event. Because of this there have been no prospective studies on SCD in ACHD. However, multiple retrospective studies on ICD implantation in ACHD have shown that this treatment does appear to be effective. Researchers from the Academic Medical Center have identified several risk factors for sudden cardiac death. A risk score was created using this data, which has been validated in an internal and external cohort in a retrospective setting. The design of this study, including the conception of the risk score, its calculation method and validation will be published in an international scientific peer-reviewed journal. The hypothesis of this study is that the risk score accurately predicts the risk of sudden cardiac death.
Prospective, Non-randomized, Single-arm Study to assess the accuracy of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) for characterization of arrhythmogenic substrate in patients with ischaemic cardiomyopathy undergoing ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation
The aim of this study is to quantify and characterize the outcomes of radiofrequency (RF) ablation after, and the utility of electroanatomical mapping with the Advisor™ HD Grid Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled™ (hereafter called "HD Grid") and EnSite Precision™ Cardiac Mapping System (SV 2.2 or higher, hereafter called "EnSite Precision") with HD Wave Solution™ voltage mapping (hereafter called "HD Wave Solution") in subjects with persistent atrial fibrillation (PersAF) or ventricular tachycardia (VT) in real-world clinical settings.
The Physiologic Pacing Registry is a prospective, observational, multi-center registry performed to gain a broader understanding of 1) physiologic pacing implant and follow-up workflows, including pacing and sensing measurements and 2) the clinical utility in creating a 3-dimensional electro-anatomical map of cardiac structures prior to physiologic pacing device implants based on the clinical site's routine care.
Subjects will be consented to wear the CoVa-2 monitoring system prior to (baseline), during, and after an Electrophysiology Procedure (EP). During this time, the system will measure the following parameters from subjects: heart rate (HR), Heart Rate Variability (HRV), respiration rate (RR), and Cardiac Output (CO). Data will be retrospectively analyzed to determine if the system effectively operates under these conditions, and can effectively monitor subjects and allow them to be discharged early from the hospital. Subjects will not be measured while transferred in and out of the operating room. Approximate sample size is 20 subjects.
This is an early feasibility, non-randomized, open-label, single group, interventional study to be conducted in up to 20 US subjects to evaluate the technical feasibility of the Durablate Catheter and Thermedical Ablation System to eliminate or control sustained, monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with VT refractory to drug and conventional catheter ablation with acceptable procedural safety.
