This trial tests whether giving a drug called ivabradine before sinus surgery helps keep your heart rate steady during the procedure. It may reduce risks during surgery for people with a normal resting heart rate.
This trial tests two medicines to lower heart rate before a cardiac CT scan in adults who need the scan. It is for people whose heart rate is naturally a bit fast (over 65 beats per minute) but not too fast (under 100 bpm).
This study compares different heart rate targets for people with ongoing atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) to find which one improves symptoms and quality of life. It may help you and your doctor choose the best treatment plan.
This trial tests if ivabradine, a drug that lowers heart rate, can help patients in cardiogenic shock after a type of heart attack called STEMI. It is for patients with a fast heart rate (at least 100 beats per minute) who cannot take beta-blockers.
This study tests whether a drug called ivabradine can safely lower a fast heart rate in people with sepsis (a severe infection that affects the whole body). It aims to see if controlling heart rate helps improve recovery.
This study tests whether ivabradine (a heart-rate medicine) can improve blood flow and other vital measurements in adults with sepsis in the ICU. It may help by lowering a fast heart rate when blood pressure is already being supported.
