Study of heart mapping for abnormal rhythms
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diagnosed abnormal heart rhythm (like ventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, etc.) and are scheduled for a mapping and ablation procedure.
- You've had at least one episode of the abnormal rhythm recorded by a heart monitor in the last 12 months.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are willing to follow all pre- and post-procedure tests and instructions.

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 study tests a new mapping system that helps doctors see the electrical signals in your heart more clearly during a standard ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation. It may improve the accuracy of the treatment.
This trial tests whether a “virtual” computer map created from your heart scans can help doctors do catheter ablation to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). It aims to improve the procedure for people whose AF symptoms were not controlled well with anti-arrhythmia medicines.
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 studies the upper left chamber of the heart (the left atrium) in people who have fast or irregular heartbeats from the lower chambers (ventricular arrhythmias). The goal is to see if there are specific patterns in the left atrium that might be linked to these arrhythmias, which could help tailor treatments in the future.
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.
