Measuring quality of life with a leadless pacemaker
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how a leadless pacemaker (a small pacemaker inside the heart) affects people’s day-to-day quality of life. You may qualify if you need a pacemaker and can complete quality-of-life questionnaires and follow-up visits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- You need a pacemaker implant for a recommended reason
- Your expected survival is more than 1 year (and the study also uses 12 months)
- Your heart function is considered normal, with preserved ability to pump (preserved LVEF)
- You can care for yourself or still manage daily tasks before the implant, and you can take part in the surveys
- You are able and willing to return for follow-up in the same area for the study period

This study measures how heart procedures affect quality of life for both patients and their caregivers, using simple questionnaires.
This study looks at how to better track patients’ quality of life (how you feel and function) after catheter ablation for a dangerous heart rhythm, using questionnaires you complete. It may help the care team understand how to measure patient outcomes more accurately after treatment.
This study looks at what factors affect the choice of a leadless pacemaker and how well it keeps the upper and lower chambers of the heart beating together. It may help people with a specific type of heart block who need a pacemaker.
This trial studies a small, leadless pacemaker that is placed directly in the heart to treat slow heart rhythms. It's designed for people who need a pacemaker for the bottom chambers of the heart.
This study compares two types of pacemakers: a small leadless pacemaker (placed directly in the heart without wires) and a newer pacing technique called left bundle area pacing. It aims to see which is safer and works better for people who need a pacemaker due to heart block or after a TAVR procedure.
This trial tests a new pacemaker system for people who need a pacemaker for a slow or irregular heartbeat. It aims to see if the system is safe and works well.
