A new way to treat stubborn heart rhythm problems
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a special navigation technique to improve the success of repeat catheter ablation for ventricular arrhythmias, helping patients who haven't been helped by prior procedures or medications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 21 or older
- You have had a previous catheter ablation that didn't work, and at least one heart rhythm medication that didn't help
- You have either monomorphic ventricular tachycardia with an ICD and a hospital stay for it, or frequent PVCs with 15% or more burden
- You have symptoms like palpitations, fainting, fatigue, or a reduced heart pumping strength (under 50%)
- You can have the procedure and agree to follow-up visits

This trial studies a special “needle” ablation method (with saline) to treat a dangerous, repeat heart rhythm problem called monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT). It’s for adults whose VT keeps coming back despite prior treatments and who may not benefit from another standard ablation.
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 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 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 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.
This trial studies a procedure to fix abnormal heart rhythms (ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation) in people who have an LVAD and a defibrillator (ICD) or an alternative device. It may help prevent future dangerous rhythm episodes after LVAD treatment.
