Solving challenges with conduction system pacing
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is testing a special way to pace the heart's natural electrical system, which may help people who need a pacemaker for certain heart-block conditions or for heart failure treatment. It aims to make pacing work better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a condition where your heart's electrical signals are blocked (like high-grade AV block or bundle branch block) or you need a pacemaker for heart failure with left bundle branch block.
- You are between 18 and 100 years old.
- You are able to understand the study and give your permission (consent).
- You are not pregnant (if you could become pregnant, a test will be done before the procedure).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at a heart pacing approach to prevent damage to the heart muscle that can sometimes happen after a pacemaker is placed for atrioventricular (heart rhythm) block. It may help some people avoid worsening heart function over time.
This study looks at how well a special type of pacemaker (conduction system pacing) works over time. If you've already had this procedure, joining could help doctors learn how to improve future care for people like you.
This study tests how a pacemaker affects blood flow and heart health in people with heart block. It aims to see if special pacing settings can improve how the heart works.
This trial tests a new pacemaker placement technique for people with a slow heartbeat (sinus node dysfunction) who need a pacemaker anyway. The goal is to see if this special placement can help prevent atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat that can cause stroke and other complications.
This trial tests two types of heart pacing procedures for people with heart failure and atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat). One approach involves disabling the natural electrical pathway between the upper and lower heart chambers and using a pacemaker to regulate heartbeats; the other uses a special pacemaker that helps both chambers work together. The goal is to reduce symptoms and hospitalizations.
This trial studies whether a strategy to regularize (control) heart rate can improve outcomes in people who have permanent atrial fibrillation and heart failure. It focuses on people with recent heart-failure hospitalization and checks several heart, kidney, and health-condition limits to keep the study safe.
