Summary

This trial is testing a new pacemaker called the Calyan Pacemaker system. It aims to see if the device is safe and works well for patients who need help with their heart rhythms. The pacemaker helps the heart beat regularly by sending small electrical signals.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 who need a single-chamber ventricular pacemaker and can consent to the study. They should expect to live at least one more year and be in good health overall. Not for those with active infections, recent or current COVID-19, pregnant/breastfeeding women, enrolled in other studies, severe heart failure/COPD, certain heart block conditions or device implants that conflict.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the Calyan Pacemaker system's safety and how well it works for people with slow heart rates needing ventricular pacing. It will assess if this new pacemaker is a feasible option compared to existing treatments.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, typical risks may include infection at the implant site, bleeding or bruising, allergic reactions to materials used in the pacemaker or during surgery complications related to device implantation.

Other Research
The most common treatments for slow heart rate (bradycardia) include the use of pacemakers, which are devices that deliver electrical stimulation to regulate heart rhythm. Pacemakers work by sending electrical impulses to the heart to ensure it beats at a normal rate. This is crucial for patients with bradycardia because a slow heart rate can lead to insufficient blood flow to the body's organs, causing symptoms like fatigue, dizziness, and fainting. By maintaining an adequate heart rate, pacemakers help improve blood circulation and overall quality of life for these patients.
