Pacemaker Study for Heart Block
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with atrioventricular block (a type of heart block).
- Your doctor expects you to live more than 1 year.
- Your heart's pumping strength (ejection fraction) is 45% or higher.
- You have not had a heart procedure like a stent or bypass in the last 30 days.

This study compares two types of pacemaker pacing methods in people with heart block and normal heart pumping function. It looks at how often short bursts of fast heart rhythm occur in the upper heart chambers, which may help improve long-term heart health.
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 compares two ways to pace the heart in people who have a slow or blocked heart rhythm. The goal is to find which method works better for patients with certain types of heart block.
This trial looks at different ways to pace the heart (like left, right, or both sides) to see which works best for people who need a pacemaker. If you have a heart condition requiring a pacemaker, this study may help find the safest and most effective option for you.
This study compares two pacemaker pacing strategies—left-sided “bundle branch area” pacing versus right-sided ventricular pacing. It aims to see which approach better prevents heart failure getting worse and reduces abnormal timing between heart chambers over time.
This trial compares two pacing methods (LBBAP vs RVP) in people with heart block who need a pacemaker. It looks at whether one method reduces the chance of developing atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). To join, you must have a specific type of heart block, never had atrial fibrillation, and have a healthy pumping heart.
