Dual-energy cardiac ablation for ventricular arrhythmia
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new method using two types of energy to treat a fast heartbeat coming from the lower heart chambers. It is designed for people whose symptoms have not been controlled by medication and who do not have other serious heart conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You have a type of fast heartbeat that starts in the lower chambers of your heart and you have symptoms from it.
- You have tried at least one heart rhythm medication that either didn't help enough or caused side effects.
- Your heart's pumping strength (ejection fraction) is above 40%.
- You do not have certain other heart diseases, an implanted pacemaker or defibrillator, or a history of dangerous heart rhythms.

This trial tests a new way to treat rapid heartbeats from the lower chambers (ventricles) using a special catheter that delivers short electrical pulses to stop the abnormal signals. It may help people with extra beats (PVCs) or a fast heart rhythm (ventricular tachycardia) that needs treatment.
This study compares two treatments for a fast heartbeat called ventricular tachycardia in people with prior heart attacks and relatively preserved heart function: one uses heat energy (ablation) to fix the electrical problem, and the other places an implantable defibrillator that shocks the heart to restore normal rhythm. The goal is to find which approach works better for people whose symptoms are well-tolerated.
This study compares two catheter-based procedures to treat ventricular tachycardia (VT), a fast, dangerous heart rhythm. It looks to see which approach works better at reducing repeat VT events in people with weakened heart pumping.
This study tests a new device called the DuoVT PFA System to treat ventricular tachycardia, a fast heart rhythm that can be dangerous. It aims to help people who have this condition along with heart disease from a past heart attack, and who have not been helped by medications.
This study tests whether heart catheter ablation can safely stop repeated dangerous heart rhythms in people with heart disease. It may help those who are having frequent episodes that cause very low blood pressure.
This trial tests a new catheter-based procedure to treat life-threatening irregular heartbeats (ventricular tachycardia) that keep coming back despite medication. If you've had a heart attack and your implanted defibrillator hasn't fully controlled these arrhythmias, this procedure might help prevent future episodes.
