Testing a detailed heart tracing to evaluate rhythm risks
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study checks a more detailed kind of heart recording (ECG) using many small sensors to better measure electrical rhythm problems. It may help doctors refine how they assess risk in people with serious or suspected dangerous heart rhythm issues.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are being seen at Bordeaux University Hospital for a serious heart rhythm problem (such as ventricular fibrillation or sudden resuscitated death) or for concerning symptoms like fainting (syncope).
- Or you are being evaluated because of suspected inherited sudden-death risk or because prior ECG or Holter tests were abnormal.
- Or you are scheduled for or being considered for a preventive implantable defibrillator (a device to stop dangerous rhythms), due to a higher heart rhythm risk.
- Your age is 14 years or older (the study excludes children under 14).
- If you can become pregnant, you must use effective birth control; the study excludes pregnancy and breastfeeding.

This study looks at how the heart's electrical signals can predict sudden cardiac arrest in people with a weakened heart muscle. It may help doctors identify who is at highest risk.
This study looks at how the heart's electrical signals can help doctors understand if treatments prevent dangerous heart rhythms in active people. It involves people with or without heart devices like ICDs or pacemakers, and may help improve care for active individuals with heart conditions.
This trial is testing a new algorithm that uses a simple, one-lead ECG (heart tracing) to measure how fast electrical signals travel through the heart. Researchers want to see if the algorithm works well in people whose heart intervals are slightly outside the normal range, which may help doctors better monitor heart conditions.
This study looks at people who have frequent abnormal signals from the upper heart (supraventricular extra beats or short runs) and how that relates to atrial fibrillation risk. If you qualify, you may help researchers understand better ways to prevent or manage certain heart rhythm problems.
This study looks at how certain substances in your blood (called biomarkers) might help predict the risk of serious heart rhythm problems. By joining, you could help doctors better understand who needs treatment to prevent dangerous heart rhythms.
This study looks at how heart rhythm problems affect heart function. It may help doctors better understand and treat these conditions.
