Active clinical trials for "Tachycardia"

The purpose of this study was to explore the safety and efficacy of a Pulsed Field Ablation（PFA） Device and Force Sensing Pulsed Field Ablation Catheter in the treatment of Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia（PSVT）

Prospective cohort study evaluating the electrophysiologic and biochemical effects of stellate ganglion block in patients with ventricular tachycardia.

The mechanism behind postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) involves many causes including a sympathetic nervous system problem. Blood gases, like carbon dioxide (CO2), have an important effect on sympathetic activation. The purpose of this research study is to determine if higher CO2 levels have any effect in lowering heart rate and reducing POTS symptoms when upright/standing. The investigators are also searching for the ideal CO2 concentration to achieve the most effective response

Confirm clinical safety and performance of the Pamira lead to support the regulatory post market strategy in Europe and other regions and validating promotional claims by demonstrating clinical safety evaluating performance based on sensing and pacing assessment collecting additional data of interest to assess other aspects such as the handling and usability

STEP ICD is a premarket, exploratory, early feasibility, interventional study designed to evaluate the preliminary safety and performance of the Investigational Devices. The study is intended to inform the final device design which will be further evaluated in traditional feasibility and /or pivotal clinical investigations. The primary safety objective is to characterize safety of the EV-ICD Lead through 3 months post-implant. The primary performance objective is to characterize sensing and conversion of induced VF with the EV-ICD Lead up to 3 months post-implant.

Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a relatively common condition affecting mostly otherwise healthy young women. It is the cause of significant disability and an impairment in quality of life. These patients have high heart rate and symptoms during standing. Many of these patients are disabled and have a poor quality of life. The sympathetic nerves are part of the nervous system that helps to maintain normal blood pressures and heart rates during activities of daily life. The purpose of this study is to determine the importance of sympathetic activation as a cause of orthostatic symptoms. The investigators will assess the effects of a blood pressure medication (Moxonidine) on the symptoms during standing. Moxonidine lowers sympathetic activity. The investigators believe patients with high resting sympathetic activity might benefit from Moxonidine. It might reduce high heart rate and improve symptoms during standing. This study should help clinicians and the growing population of patients with POTS gain a better understanding of this disorder and find more personalized treatment.

Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is one of the most common forms of chronic orthostatic intolerance in the United States. This is a disabling disorder characterized by an excessive increase in heart rate upon standing that is accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness and fatigue. One of the most under appreciated and bothersome symptoms of POTS is impaired cognition or "brain fog," which occurs to a level that interferes with daily activities such as work and education. Despite this high impact, the reasons why POTS patients have problems with cognition are not well understood. This project will test the overall hypothesis that "brain fog" in POTS is related to increased activation of cognitive brain regions during mental tasks when compared with healthy subjects, and that this activation is exacerbated by in the presence of orthostatic stress.

Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is the most common chronic cause of postural lightheadedness, and upright confusion afflicting many Americans, mostly young women. Many POTS patients hyperventilate by increasing their depth of breathing that produces tachycardia, alters blood flow and blood pooling in the body and importantly reduces brain blood flow causing "brain fog". In this proposal the investigators will demonstrate in young women that abnormal repeated brief impairment of blood pressure and brain flow just after standing sensitizes the body's oxygen sensor in POTS to respond as if it were in a low oxygen environment causing hyperventilation and its consequences. In this project the investigators will use various drugs that will help to understand the mechanisms that cause POTS in this unique subset of POTS patients who hyperventilate.

This clinical investigation is intended to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of ventricular ablation therapy using the FlexAbility Sensor Enabled Ablation Catheter in patients with drug-refractory monomorphic ventricular tachycardia in whom ventricular tachycardia recurs despite antiarrhythmic drug therapy or when antiarrhythmic drugs are not tolerated or desired.
