Study of heart muscle weakness caused by abnormal heart rhythms
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at a condition where an abnormal heart rhythm can weaken the heart muscle (arrhythmia-induced cardiomyopathy). You may be asked questions, have heart tests reviewed, and help researchers better describe who is affected and how it develops.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of arrhythmia-induced cardiomyopathy (from clinic notes or screening)
- You are able to sign the study consent
- You are not in the middle of a major acute emergency (for example, major heart attack, serious infection with organ problems, major trauma, right after heart surgery, or shock/very unstable blood pressure)
- Your expected survival is at least 1 year (not end-of-life care)

This study looks at the genes of people whose heart muscle becomes weak due to a fast or irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation or flutter). The goal is to better understand why this happens in some people and not others.
This study looks at how heart disease progresses in people with Friedreich's ataxia, a genetic condition that affects coordination and heart health. By taking part, you help researchers better understand the condition, which may guide future treatments.
This study looks at how heart rhythm problems affect heart function. It may help doctors better understand and treat these conditions.
This study is a registry that collects information from people with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy who have an ICD. The goal is to learn more about the condition, its heart rhythm complications, and how the ICD works, which may help improve future care.
This trial looks at how the heart's electrical signals work in people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (a condition where the heart muscle becomes thickened) who also have atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). The goal is to understand these signals better during a planned ablation procedure, which is a treatment to fix the irregular rhythm.
This study looks at people with a genetic heart muscle condition called cardiomyopathy, which can cause irregular heartbeats. By studying your condition, doctors hope to better understand how it develops, how to predict its course, and how to improve diagnosis and treatment.
