Klinische Studien
Angetrieben durch das Ziel, die Weiterentwicklung der Kardiologie voranzutreiben, führt BIOTRONIK zahlreiche klinische Studien durch.
Unsere wissenschaftlichen Aktivitäten umfassen ein weites Feld verschiedener Themengebiete wie Herzrhythmusmanagement, Elektrophysiologie und kardiovaskuläre Intervention. Dabei beschränken wir uns nicht auf den Nachweis der Sicherheit und Effizienz unserer Produkte, sondern arbeiten an den von führenden medizinischen Institutionen identifizierten Lücken in der Forschung. Bestätigt durch unsere Landmark-Studien sehen wir uns in der Verantwortung, durch aktive Beteiligung Fortschritte auf dem Gebiet der Kardiologie zu erzielen.
In Zusammenarbeit mit internationalen medizinischen Experten engagieren wir uns für die Weiterentwicklung der Diagnostik und Behandlung von kardiovaskulären Erkrankungen. Diese Kooperationen helfen uns, die Bedürfnisse der Patienten zu verstehen und ihnen die bestmögliche Behandlung zukommen zu lassen.
Die Auflistung gibt einen Überblick über laufende und abgeschlossene klinische Studien zu Herzrhythmusstörungen und kardiovaskulärer Erkrankungen und Behandlungen und bietet Verweise zu Publikationen oder anderen Quellen.
- randomisierte klinische Studien
- Beobachtungsstudien
- Zulassungsstudien
Für Anfragen von medizinischen Fachkräften, die mehr über laufende klinische Studien im Bereich Kardiologie erfahren möchten, stehen wir gerne zur Verfügung.
