Placing a leadless pacemaker through the right neck vein
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is testing a new way to place a small, wire-free pacemaker through a vein in the neck. It may be an option if you need a pacemaker and your doctor says a leadless one is suitable for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need to get a pacemaker for your heart condition.
- Your doctor has said a leadless pacemaker (a small, wire-free device) could work for you.
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must not have any issue that would stop doctors from accessing a vein in the right side of your neck.
- You cannot be enrolled in another clinical trial right now.
