Sphere-9 VT EFS Study for Ventricular Tachycardia

This study is testing the safety and effectiveness of a new treatment for Ventricular Tachycardia (VT), a fast and irregular heartbeat. The treatment uses the Sphere-9 Catheter with the Affera Mapping and Ablation System. You may be able to join if you are an adult between 18 and 85 years old, have recurrent VT, and have scar tissue in your heart from a heart attack or other heart condition. Researchers will look at how safe the procedure is within 7 days and if it successfully treats your VT on the day of the procedure. The study is currently enrolling 60 participants.

Study design
This is a feasibility study involving 60 adult participants. It is a multi-center, non-randomized, and unblinded study.
What's involved
You would undergo an ablation procedure using the Sphere-9 Catheter with the Affera Mapping and Ablation System. Your safety will be assessed within 7 days after the procedure, and effectiveness on the day of the procedure.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your safety will be checked for up to 7 days after the procedure. The effectiveness of the procedure will be assessed on the day it is performed.
