Assessment of Stroke Volume and Cardiac Output in Response to Varying Heart Rates

NCT03446326 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 25

Last updated 2026-05-05

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators will seek to determine the effects of different heart rates on both stroke volume and cardiac output using non-invasive hemodynamic assessments. In order to safely manipulate the HR, the investigators will study patients with permanent pacemakers in whom heart rate manipulation can be done in a safe and non-invasive manner.

Conditions

  • Vasovagal Syncope

Interventions

DEVICE

Pacing

Assess the non-invasively determined stroke volume and cardiac output response at different paced heart rates in patients with a cardiac pacemaker or implanted defibrillator with preserved ejection fractions (LVEF≥50%)
