Left bundle branch pacing after myectomy for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new way to pace the heart (left bundle branch pacing) for people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who still have a dangerous heart rhythm problem after myectomy surgery. It aims to see if this pacing can reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (thick heart muscle) and have already had a myectomy (heart muscle trimming surgery).
- You now have a specific heart rhythm delay called left bundle branch block (LBBB) with a wide QRS (≥130 ms).
- Your risk of sudden cardiac death is high (HCM Risk-SCD score 6% or higher).
- You are willing to sign a consent form to participate.

This trial looks at a new way to guide the placement of a special pacemaker (left bundle branch area pacing) using 3D imaging. It aims to see if this approach helps improve outcomes for people who already have this type of pacemaker.
This trial compares two types of heart pacing to see which improves outcomes for people with heart failure. It may help those who need pacing to better coordinate heartbeats and relieve symptoms.
This trial tests whether a different pacing approach called left bundle branch pacing can improve outcomes and heart structure changes in people who did not improve with standard biventricular CRT. It may help some patients with ongoing heart failure symptoms and weak heart pumping.
This trial tests a new pacing approach that combines a left bundle branch pacemaker with standard cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) for people with heart failure. It aims to improve the heart's pumping efficiency compared to using the left bundle branch pacemaker alone.
This study compares a newer heart pacing method (left bundle branch pacing) to the standard method (right ventricular pacing) in people who need most of their heartbeats paced. It may help improve how well the heart pumps over time.
This study tests a new way to place a pacemaker lead in the left bundle branch area of the heart. It may help people who need a pacemaker to see if this approach is safe and works well.
