ECG markers for subcutaneous defibrillator eligibility
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at electrocardiogram (ECG, a heart rhythm test) markers to see who might be eligible for a subcutaneous defibrillator (a device placed under the skin to prevent sudden cardiac arrest). If you are seeing a cardiologist for any reason and are over 18, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are seeing a cardiologist for any heart condition.
- You have been informed about the study and agree to take part verbally.
- You are covered by a social security plan (like health insurance).
- You do not have a pacemaker or other cardiac stimulation device.
- You are not currently in another clinical trial that could affect this study's results.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at whether a special type of defibrillator that sits under the skin is a good option for people with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, a heart condition that can cause dangerous heart rhythms. It aims to help doctors decide who might benefit from this device and when.
This study looks at how the heart's electrical signals can help doctors understand if treatments prevent dangerous heart rhythms in active people. It involves people with or without heart devices like ICDs or pacemakers, and may help improve care for active individuals with heart conditions.
This trial tests whether a programmed heart rhythm test can better identify who needs an implanted defibrillator (ICD) soon after a heart attack. It may help prevent dangerous fast heart rhythms (tachyarrhythmias) by guiding who gets an ICD.
This study looks at whether it is safe to play sports if you have a specific type of implanted defibrillator under the skin. It will track your device performance and exercise habits, using home monitoring, to understand any risks from sports.
This study helps doctors identify which heart attack survivors with moderate heart weakness are at highest risk of sudden cardiac death. Researchers will collect health information and heart imaging over 5 years to find early warning signs.
This study tests a new type of defibrillator that goes underneath the skin, near your breastbone, to protect against dangerous heart rhythms. It may be an option if you need an ICD but haven't had certain prior chest surgeries or devices.
