U.S., March 10 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07458724) titled 'Radiation-free Anatomical Direct Imaging Approach for No-fluoroscopy Cardiac Electrode Implantation' on Feb. 25.
Brief Summary: Permanent pacemaker implantation is traditionally performed under fluoroscopic (X-ray) guidance. Although effective, fluoroscopy exposes patients and medical staff to ionizing radiation. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is a non-invasive ultrasound imaging technique that allows real-time visualization of cardiac structures without radiation exposure. However, its role in guiding permanent pacemaker implantation has not been systematically evaluated.
This study aims to assess the feasibility and safety...
