Trial Comparing Ablation With Medical Therapy in Patients With Ventricular Tachycardia
Ventricular TachycardiaCoronary Artery DiseaseThis study aims to compare antiarrhythmic drug therapy with catheter ablation using the SmartTOUCH catheter (Biosense Webster Inc.) as treatment for patients with ventricular tachycardia and coronary artery disease
Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation in LVAD Patients
Ventricular TachycardiaEnd-stage Heart Failure2 moreThe 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.
Echocardiography-based Motion Integration and Management for Substrate Characterization and STAR...
Ventricular ArrythmiaProspective, observational, single center, pilot study to analyze the feasibility of motion and structural data integration in patients with ventricular arrhythmia by means of artificial intelligence for improved arrhythmogenic substrate characterization and motion management during stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation.
Study Evaluating GAP-486 in Non-sustained Ventricular Tachycardia
ArrhythmiasTo determine whether the administration of test article will decrease the occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias in patients who have acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina, ST segment elevated myocardial infarction or myocardial infarction without ST elevation).
Rook Epicardial Access Device Study
Ventricular TachycardiaArrythmiaThe purpose of this study is to confirm the efficacy and safety of the Talon Surgical Rook® Epicardial Access Kit as a pericardial access device. The Rook® Epicardial Access Kit will be used to gain access the epicardial surface of the heart via a subxiphoid approach in adult patients with a normal, non-distended pericardial space.
Sensing and Defibrillation With a Commercially Available ICD Coupled With a Parasternal Extravascular...
Ventricular ArrhythmiaVentricular Tachycardia1 moreThe SECURE EV Study is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm study without concurrent or historical controls. The objectives of the study are 1) to characterize safety of the AtaCor EV-ICD Lead up to 90 days post-implant, and 2) to characterize sensing and conversion of induced VF up to 90 days post-implant.
Percutaneous Hemodynamic Support With Impella 2.5 During Scar-related Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation...
Ventricular TachycardiaThe purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the Impella 2.5 Circulatory Support System for use during mapping and ablation of ventricular tachycardia in the setting of Ventricular dysfunction.
Understanding Outcomes With the EMBLEM™ S-ICD in Primary Prevention Patients With Low Ejection Fraction...
Ventricular FibrillationVentricular Tachycardia1 moreThis study assesses the 18-month incidence of inappropriate shocks in subjects implanted with the EMBLEM Subcutaneous Implantable Defibrillator (S-ICD) for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death. Devices are to be programmed with zone cutoffs at 200 bpm and 250 bmp in order to mimic the programming settings for transvenous ICDs in the MADIT RIT study. The incidence of inappropriate S-ICD shocks will be compared to the incidence of inappropriate shocks observed in the MADIT RIT study.
An Assessment of Dual Site Left Ventricular Endocardial Pacing
Atrial FibrillationVentricular Tachycardia1 moreWe are investigating ways to help patients with heart failure, which is caused by damaged hearts which function less well, and cause symptoms of breathlessness, fatigue, lack of energy and swelling. Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy (CRT) pacemakers are used to improve the pumping function of the main heart chamber in certain suitable people with heart failure. CRT requires a pacemaker with 2 wires, one placed inside the right heart chamber and one normally placed on the outside of the left heart chamber. These two wires act together to re-time the coordination of the heartbeat, which is known to improve heart function. The investigators are assessing whether they might be able to improve heart function even more by placing two wires on the inside of the left heart chamber, rather than one around the outside. The investigators wish to assess whether: Using two wires within the left side of the heart gives a greater increase in heart function than one. It is possible to choose the best spot inside of the heart by measuring the pattern of the heart beat. Is it possible to use a different type of heart monitor placed outside the body instead of a monitor wire inside the heart to assess improvement in heart function? They are investigating this in people with hearts that beat less effectively than normal.
Initial Chronic Human Validation Study: Subcutaneous Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (S-ICD)...
Ventricular TachyarrhythmiasPrimary objective is to evaluate the safety and performance of the implanted Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) system. A maximum of 10 subjects were to be enrolled and followed for one month to collect data on the safety, efficacy, and performance of the implanted S-ICD system. Additionally, patient comfort will be assessed as will cosmetic outcome.
