Heart Rhythm Problems During Heart Attack
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at dangerous heart rhythms that happen during a heart attack. Researchers will review medical records from 2012–2024 to understand these rhythms better and potentially improve treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You had an acute myocardial infarction (heart attack)
- You experienced sustained ventricular arrhythmia—either ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation (dangerously fast or chaotic heartbeats)—during the acute phase of your heart attack
- Your dangerous heart rhythm occurred before you were discharged from the hospital
- Your heart attack occurred between January 1, 2012 and April 14, 2024

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study follows people who have been hospitalized for a sudden inflammation of the heart muscle (myocarditis) to understand their risk of developing irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias). It aims to identify who might need closer monitoring or extra treatment to prevent complications.
This study looks at how aging affects recovery in people who have had a heart attack at least 3 months ago. It may help doctors better understand and care for older heart patients.
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 study is a registry that collects information from people with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy who have an ICD. The goal is to learn more about the condition, its heart rhythm complications, and how the ICD works, which may help improve future care.
This study is building a tool to predict who might have a heart attack, using data from people who already have heart disease. By joining, you help improve prevention for people with similar risk factors.
This study is looking at certain blood markers and heart tissue changes in people who have recently had a heart attack. The goal is to understand how the heart heals and remodels after an attack, which could help improve future treatments.
