ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new system that helps doctors place a special heart pacing device more accurately. The goal is to improve the way the device is positioned in patients who may have heart failure or slow heart rates (bradycardia) by using a three-dimensional (3D) image overlay during the procedure. By using detailed images from cardiac MRI scans, the researchers hope to avoid damaging heart tissue and improve the success of the procedure, leading to better health outcomes for patients.

To participate in this trial, you need to be over 18 years old and have previously been part of certain studies related to heart therapy or received a left bundle branch area pacing device in the last 10 years. Unfortunately, if you have congenital heart disease or did not have a cardiac MRI before getting the pacing device, you would not be eligible to join. If you qualify, you can expect to be part of a study that aims to enhance the accuracy of heart device placement, which may ultimately help improve your heart health.
