Ventricular Extrasystoles
Ventricular extrasystoles are extra heartbeats that originate in the ventricles, causing a feeling of skipped beats or palpitations. They can occur in healthy individuals but may also indicate underlying heart issues.
Carvedilol vs. Flecainide for Ventricular Arrhythmias
We are comparing two medications to see which one better reduces abnormal heartbeats in people with idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias. The study also looks at how these treatments affect quality of life and any side effects.
What diseases are being studied?
Health conditions and diseases that the clinical trial is designed to study and treat.
Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia
Monomorphic ventricular tachycardia is a type of fast heart rhythm that originates from the ventricles and has a consistent pattern. It can lead to serious complications if not treated promptly.
Idiopathic Ventricular Arrhythmias
Idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias are irregular heartbeats originating from the ventricles without a known cause. They can lead to symptoms like palpitations but are often benign.
