Recruiting studies
- NCT06007872Recruiting

This trial studies a procedure to implant a Watchman device using a tiny ultrasound probe placed inside the heart, avoiding a probe in the throat. It may help patients with atrial fibrillation who need to reduce stroke risk.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06061757Recruiting
Combining 4D-ICE and TEE imaging for heart closure
This trial tests a new imaging method (4D-ICE) used alongside a standard ultrasound (TEE) during a heart procedure to close the left atrial appendage, a small pouch in the heart where clots can form in people with atrial fibrillation. The goal is to see if the new method makes the procedure safer and more precise.
Overland Park, KansasAges 18–80 - NCT06075628Recruiting
CT scan study after LAA closure procedure
This study looks at long-term outcomes after LAA closure (a procedure to reduce stroke risk) by reviewing CT scans of the device. It aims to learn if blood flow around the device affects healing and future health.
Overland Park, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06099106Recruiting
Testing a new device to close the left atrial appendage in AFib
This trial tests a new device called ENDOMATIC SEPIOLA that closes a small pouch in your heart (the left atrial appendage) to lower your stroke risk. It is a non-surgical option for people with atrial fibrillation who cannot take blood thinners.
TbilisiAges 18 years+ - NCT06212674RecruitingPhase 4
Stroke prevention: combined heart procedure for atrial fibrillation
This study tests a combined approach — a catheter ablation to fix the irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) and a device to close the left atrial appendage — in people who recently had a stroke caused by a clot. The goal is to prevent future strokes and reduce the need for long-term blood thinners.
Katowice, Upper SilesiaAges 18–75 - NCT06401616RecruitingPhase 4
Stopping blood thinners after heart surgery for atrial fibrillation
This trial tests whether it is safe for patients with atrial fibrillation to stop taking blood thinners after they have had heart surgery, including closure of the left atrial appendage. The goal is to see if these patients can avoid long-term medication without increasing the risk of stroke.
Copenhagen, Capital RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT06405750Recruiting
Study of the left atrial appendage during open-heart surgery
This study looks at a part of the heart called the left atrial appendage during open-heart surgery. It aims to learn more about heart rhythm problems and blood clots, which may help improve future treatments.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT06557616Recruiting
CoolCryo system for treating atrial fibrillation during mitral valve surgery
This trial tests a new tool called CoolCryo that freezes heart tissue to treat atrial fibrillation while you have mitral valve surgery. If you are already having this surgery and also have AF, this device could correct both problems at once.
BydgoszczAges 18 years+ - NCT06620757Recruiting
Short-term single blood thinner after LAmbre device implant
This study tests whether it is safe and effective to use just one blood thinner (aspirin or clopidogrel) for a short time after getting a LAmbre device implanted to close off a heart pouch that can cause strokes. It is for people with atrial fibrillation who cannot take standard blood thinners long-term.
A CoruñaAges 18–100 - NCT06630936Recruiting
Studying atrial fibrillation with mitral regurgitation
This trial tests a treatment for people with atrial fibrillation who also have a leaky mitral valve. It aims to see if treating both conditions together can improve symptoms.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT06686485Recruiting
Combined heart procedure for AFib and stroke prevention
This trial combines two procedures at once: a pulsed field ablation to treat atrial fibrillation and a device implant to close the left atrial appendage to reduce stroke risk. It is designed for people in Asia who need both treatments and may benefit from having them together.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06696170Recruiting
New catheter for atrial fibrillation using nanosecond pulses
This trial tests a new catheter that uses very short electrical pulses to treat atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). It may help people whose AF symptoms continue despite medication.
HasseltAges 18–75 - NCT06784466Recruiting
New ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation
This study is testing a new type of ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). It uses special energy to create scar tissue in the heart to block faulty electrical signals. If you have AF that isn’t controlled by medication, you may qualify.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–80 - NCT06984731Recruiting
Same-day ablation and WATCHMAN closure for AFib
This study tests whether doing a common AFib procedure (radiofrequency ablation) is safe and effective at the same time as closing off the left atrial appendage with the WATCHMAN FLX device. It's for people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation who are already candidates for both treatments.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07036965Recruiting
Comparing two types of ablation catheters for atrial fibrillation
This trial tests two different catheters that use pulsed field energy to treat atrial fibrillation (a heart rhythm problem). It aims to find which one works better for people who need blood thinners but have a high risk of bleeding.
HangzhouAges 118 years+ - NCT07171463Recruiting
New ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
This trial tests a new treatment that uses two types of energy (pulsed field and radiofrequency) to fix the heart's electrical signals in people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AFib that comes and goes). It aims to be more effective and safer than standard ablation alone.
Rzeszów, Podkarpackie VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07298473Recruiting
Redo ablation for recurrent atrial fibrillation with Sphere-9 catheter
This trial tests a new catheter and system for people who have had one previous ablation for atrial fibrillation but still have symptoms. It aims to see if a repeat procedure can safely and effectively treat recurrent episodes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07360899Recruiting
Closing the left atrial appendage during heart surgery to prevent stroke
This trial tests if closing the left atrial appendage with a special stitch during planned heart surgery can help prevent strokes in people with atrial fibrillation. If you already need heart surgery, this extra step may reduce your future stroke risk.

Avoiding blood thinners after brain bleeding in atrial fibrillation
This Phase 3 trial studies whether it’s safer to avoid long-term blood thinners after a spontaneous brain bleed in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). It compares different prevention strategies to lower the risk of stroke or other blood-vessel problems without causing new, serious bleeding.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT07441382Recruiting
Comparing treatments for frail older adults with atrial fibrillation
This study tests whether combining a heart procedure (catheter ablation) with a device to close the left atrial appendage (LAAO) is safer or better than blood thinners alone for frail patients 75 years or older with atrial fibrillation and high stroke risk. It aims to find a treatment that reduces stroke while lowering bleeding risks.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 75 years+ - NCT07575867Recruiting
Reduced Blood Thinner Strategy After Heart Device Closure
This trial tests whether patients who receive a special device to close a hole in the heart (to prevent stroke from irregular heartbeat) can safely take fewer blood-thinning medications afterward. The study compares taking a standard blood thinner for 3 months versus taking aspirin only, to see which approach works best with fewer bleeding risks.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT07236398Enrolling by invitation
