BIOTRONIK, die Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, and the German Heart Center Foundation today announced a research and innovation partnership focused on advancing digital and translational cardiology. The collaboration will bring together world-class clinical cardiovascular expertise at Deutsches Herzzentrum der Charité (DHZC) with BIOTRONIK’s strength in active cardiac devices, artificial intelligence, and connected health technologies. The partnership builds on existing projects in cardiovascular healthcare, including publicly funded initiatives. The cooperation framework will span from

Results from the multicenter CRT‑NEXT Study show that CRT‑DX, BIOTRONIK’s 2-lead CRT-D system, is as safe and effective as conventional 3-lead CRT‑D therapy. The study confirms that most CRT candidates do not develop the need for atrial pacing in the long term and can benefit from therapy with fewer leads. Coordinating Investigator Dr. Mauro Biffi presented the novel data at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) Annual Scientific Session in New Orleans. The results have also been published online in Circulation. CRT‑NEXT is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, interventional

International BIO-LivIQ Study Will Generate Evidence for Global LivIQ Leadless Pacemaker Approvals Far-Field Sensing and AV-Synchronous Pacing Performance Will be Validated by Real World Clinical Data BIOTRONIK today announced the initiation of its global pivotal study evaluating the LivIQ leadless pacemaker system. This next-generation single‑device solution is designed to deliver atrioventricular (AV)-synchrony using advanced electrical far‑field sensing. First implantations within this study have been completed at the Kokura Memorial Hospital in Kitakyushu, Japan and the National Cerebral
