Noninvasive heart mapping to improve CRT outcomes
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special noninvasive heart “mapping” test done on the body can help improve outcomes for people who need a CRT device. It studies whether mapping before implantation can better guide or predict how well the CRT will work.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can sign a consent form and agree to participate
- You are 18 years or older
- You have been on the best standard heart failure medicines for at least 3 months
- You have a heart rhythm called “sinus rhythm” and meet guideline criteria for CRT (a device that helps the heart beat in sync)
- You are planning to get a CRT device that uses biventricular pacing (both sides of the heart)
- You do not have a pacemaker/CRT/ICD already

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how a pacemaker-like device (cardiac resynchronization therapy) affects heart function in people with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction. It may help you understand if this treatment is right for you and could improve your heart health.
This trial tests a special catheter to map abnormal heart rhythms like ventricular tachycardia or atrial fibrillation. It may help patients who need a procedure to find and treat the source of these fast or irregular heartbeats.
This study looks for blood markers that may help explain or predict heart problems in people who have type 2 diabetes and heart failure. To join, you may also need to be having a planned heart procedure where doctors can collect study information.
This trial tests a noninvasive way to map your heart’s wiring and veins to help guide placement of a heart resynchronization therapy (CRT) device. If you have certain abnormal heart rhythm and weak heart pumping, it may help doctors place the therapy more accurately and safely.
This study tests a new way to guide pacemaker placement using electrical mapping to improve heart pumping in people with heart failure. It may help your heart beat more in sync, which can ease symptoms and improve quality of life.
This study tests a new heart scan method to help doctors place pacemakers more accurately for people with heart failure. It aims to improve the effectiveness of the pacemaker treatment and may lead to better outcomes for patients.
