Assessment of Stroke Volume and Cardiac Output in Response to Varying Heart Rates (NCT03446326)
Assessment of Stroke Volume and Cardiac Output in Response to Varying Heart Rates and Body Position - a Pacemaker Based Study
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
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.
