Mapping catheter for heart rhythm problems
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new catheter that helps doctors find the exact spot in the heart causing a fast or irregular heartbeat. It may help people with certain types of arrhythmias, like ventricular tachycardia, atrial tachycardia, atrial flutter, or atrial fibrillation, who are planning to have a procedure called ablation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 80 years old.
- You must have a confirmed diagnosis of one of these rhythm problems: ventricular tachycardia, atrial tachycardia, atypical atrial flutter, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, or persistent atrial fibrillation.
- You must have had symptoms from your rhythm problem, such as palpitations, chest tightness, fatigue, or shortness of breath.
- You must be a candidate for ablation, which is a procedure to fix the abnormal heart rhythm.
- You must not have severe heart failure, severe heart valve disease, recent heart attack, or other serious conditions like cancer or organ failure.

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 system (Sphere-9 and Affera) to treat a fast, dangerous heartbeat called ventricular tachycardia (VT) in people with heart scarring. It aims to see if this system is safe and effective at stopping VT, especially if past treatments haven't worked.
This study tests a new 3D heart mapping system that helps doctors guide a catheter to treat paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat that comes and goes). It uses pressure and star mapping to make the procedure more precise and safe.
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 trial tests a new, domestically made catheter that can measure tissue temperature during the procedure. It is used to treat rapid heart rhythms like supraventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective for patients who need catheter ablation.
