Focused pulse field ablation for ventricular tachycardia
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to treat rapid heartbeats from the lower chambers (ventricles) using a special catheter that delivers short electrical pulses to stop the abnormal signals. It may help people with extra beats (PVCs) or a fast heart rhythm (ventricular tachycardia) that needs treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You are scheduled for a procedure to treat either extra heartbeats (PVCs) or a fast heart rhythm from the lower chambers (ventricular tachycardia)
- You are willing to sign consent and follow the study schedule
- You do not have a blood clot in the heart (unless it can be dissolved with blood thinners first)
- You are not pregnant and will not become pregnant during the study

This study tests a new method using two types of energy to treat a fast heartbeat coming from the lower heart chambers. It is designed for people whose symptoms have not been controlled by medication and who do not have other serious heart conditions.
This trial tests a new way to treat dangerous fast heart rhythms from the lower heart chambers, using a technique called pulsed field ablation. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective for people with frequent premature beats, sustained rapid heartbeats, or life-threatening rhythm problems.
This study tests a new catheter-based treatment for people with certain types of very fast or extra heartbeats that come from the lower chambers of the heart. The catheter uses a special energy to stop the abnormal beats and might help if you have had symptoms despite other treatments.
This trial tests a new type of energy (pulsed field ablation) to treat a fast heart rhythm called ventricular tachycardia that happens after a heart attack. The goal is to stop the dangerous rhythm without damaging nearby healthy tissue.
This study tests a new way to find the exact spot in the heart that causes rapid heartbeats, so doctors can treat it more precisely with a procedure called catheter ablation.
This trial tests a new catheter-based procedure to treat life-threatening irregular heartbeats (ventricular tachycardia) that keep coming back despite medication. If you've had a heart attack and your implanted defibrillator hasn't fully controlled these arrhythmias, this procedure might help prevent future episodes.
