Testing alcohol treatment of a heart vein during atrial fibrillation ablation
This study tests whether applying a small amount of alcohol to a specific heart vein (“vein of Marshall”) is safe and feasible during a standard atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. It may help improve AF treatment, but the goal here is mainly to see if the approach can be done safely in the right patients.
PessacAges 18 years+ - NCT06883864Recruiting
Ablation for leaky valve with constant atrial fibrillation
This study tests whether a catheter ablation procedure (a way to fix abnormal heart rhythms) can help people who have both constant atrial fibrillation and severe mitral regurgitation (a leaky heart valve). It is for people whose heart valve leak is caused by the rhythm problem, not by valve damage.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT06871228Recruiting
Stopping blood thinners after successful AF ablation with close heart monitoring
This trial tests whether people with atrial fibrillation who have had a successful ablation procedure can safely stop taking blood thinners (NOACs) if they wear a monitor to check for any silent heart rhythm problems. It may help you avoid the risks of long-term blood thinner use if your ablation has been effective.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT06647485Recruiting
Pulsed Field Ablation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
This trial studies a new procedure called pulsed field ablation to treat brief episodes of atrial fibrillation (AFib). The goal is to see if it can help reset the heart's natural electrical system and reduce symptoms.
Aalst, BelgiumAges 18–70 - NCT06802965Enrolling by invitation
Shanghai atrial fibrillation patient registry study
This study tracks people in Shanghai who have been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AF, a heart rhythm condition). By joining a registry, researchers can learn more about how AF is managed over time in the local population.
ShanghaiAges Any age - NCT06802081RecruitingPhase 2
Tirzepatide for weight loss in people with atrial fibrillation
This study tests whether tirzepatide, a medication that helps with weight loss and blood sugar control, can improve the heart rhythm condition atrial fibrillation. If you have AFib and are overweight or obese, this trial may be an option for you.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–80 - 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 - NCT06735001Recruiting
Finding atrial fibrillation's metabolic signature for personalized prevention
This study looks for unique metabolic patterns in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). The goal is to develop personalized prevention strategies by comparing these patterns between patients and healthy volunteers.
PessacAges 18 years+ - NCT06719921Enrolling by invitation
Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation without x-ray
This study tests a way to perform catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation using a non-fluoroscopic lab, meaning no x-ray is needed during the procedure. It may help patients avoid radiation exposure.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 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 - NCT06699342Recruiting
Pacing and heart ablation for atrial fibrillation
This trial tests a combination of heart pacing and a specialized ablation procedure in older adults with permanent atrial fibrillation that hasn't improved with other treatments. It aims to improve symptoms and reduce hospital stays related to heart failure.
Seoul, Jongno-guAges 65 years+ - NCT02347111RecruitingPhase 4
Genetic study to guide antiarrhythmic drugs for atrial fibrillation
This study looks at how a person’s genetics may affect how well and safely antiarrhythmic medicines work for atrial fibrillation (AF). If you join, you may get medicine options like flecainide or sotalol, and researchers compare outcomes to genetic information.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–100 - NCT06615596RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Stopping blood thinners after successful atrial fibrillation ablation
This trial tests whether it is safe to stop taking blood thinners (anticoagulants) after a successful ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation. If you have had no AF for 3 months after your first ablation, you may be able to stop these medications, reducing your risk of bleeding.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06557876Recruiting
Pulse field ablation for atrial fibrillation mechanics
This study tests if a new type of energy called pulse field ablation (a procedure that uses short bursts of electric pulses) works as well as standard ablation for restoring normal heart rhythm in patients with episodes of irregular heartbeat. It may help your heart pump more normally.
Paris, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06528262RecruitingPhase 4
Study of enavogliflozin to prevent atrial fibrillation return after heart ablation
This trial tests if enavogliflozin, a diabetes drug, can help prevent atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) from coming back after a catheter ablation procedure in people with heart failure. If you've recently had or are planning this procedure, this study may offer a new way to keep your heart rhythm steady.
