Heart mapping for ventricular tachycardia ablation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a more detailed way to map the heart during an ablation procedure for ventricular tachycardia (a fast, abnormal heartbeat). It uses special catheters to find the exact spots causing the problem, which may help make the ablation safer and more effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled to have a procedure called ventricular tachycardia ablation.
- Your doctor will use a specific mapping system (EnsiteX) and special catheters (Advisor HD Grid and TactiFlex) during the procedure.
- Your heart will be mapped in detail from the inside or outside (epicardial) using high-density mapping.
- You will not be using a different mapping system for your procedure.

This trial tests two different ways of mapping the heart to guide treatment for a dangerous fast heart rhythm. The goal is to see which mapping method works better for people with an ICD who need a procedure called ablation to stop the rhythm.
This trial tests a new way of mapping the heart's electrical activity during a procedure called catheter ablation, which aims to treat a fast heart rhythm problem called ventricular tachycardia (VT). The hope is that this personalised approach will make the procedure more effective in stopping these abnormal rhythms.
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 tests a new way of mapping damaged heart muscle to improve the precision of a procedure called catheter ablation, which treats dangerously fast heart rhythms. It may help people with heart disease who need this procedure.
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 study tests a new way to map the heart's electrical activity to guide a procedure that destroys the tissue causing fast, dangerous heart rhythms. It's for people with heart disease and ventricular tachycardia that hasn't been controlled by medication.
