Recruiting studies near Austin
- NCT06455098Recruiting
Pulsed field ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
This study tests a new procedure called pulsed field ablation using a special catheter to treat paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), a type of heart rhythm problem that comes and goes. It may be an option for people whose AF hasn't been controlled well with medication.
Austin, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT07575269Recruiting
New ablation treatment for irregular heartbeat
This trial tests a new tool called FARAFLEX that uses pulsed electrical energy to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). The goal is to see if this method can safely stop AF symptoms in people whose medications haven't worked.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05963698Recruiting
Closing off a heart pouch to prevent stroke
This study tests a procedure that seals off the left atrial appendage (a small heart pouch) to help prevent stroke in people with atrial fibrillation. You may be considered if your stroke risk is high and you are already on blood-thinner medicine.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05836987RecruitingPhase 3
Smartwatch monitoring trial to guide blood thinner use for AF
This study tests whether continuous heart-rhythm monitoring with a smartwatch can better guide treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) while you stay on a blood thinner. The goal is to improve safety and reduce stroke risk by catching AF patterns more closely.
Austin, TexasAges 22–85 - NCT03907046RecruitingPhase 3
Blood thinner study to prevent stroke after brain bleed
This Phase 3 study tests whether a blood thinner (apixaban) can help prevent another stroke and support recovery after you’ve had a brain bleed. You would be assigned to a treatment group, and the study checks safety and whether strokes can be reduced without causing dangerous bleeding.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07227532Recruiting
Testing a new catheter for atrial fibrillation treatment
This study tests a new catheter system, called Varipulse, to see if it's safe and effective for treating atrial fibrillation (AF), a heart rhythm problem. People with short-lasting AF who haven't been helped by medication may be able to join.
Austin, TexasAges 22 years+ - NCT07308847Recruiting
Study of a new catheter system for treating atrial fibrillation
This trial tests a new catheter and mapping system designed to treat paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), which is a type of irregular heartbeat that comes and goes. If you have this condition, the study aims to see how well the new system works with a minimally invasive procedure.
Austin, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT06735534Recruiting
Repeat ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation with pulsed field
This trial tests a newer type of ablation (pulsed field ablation) for people with persistent atrial fibrillation who have already had one ablation. The goal is to see if it can fix the heart rhythm problem again.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07523750Recruiting
Comparing two catheter treatments for persistent atrial fibrillation
This study compares two different catheters that use pulsed field ablation to treat a type of irregular heartbeat called persistent atrial fibrillation. The goal is to see which one works better and is safer.
Austin, TexasAges 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.
Austin, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT06099730Recruiting
Pulsed field ablation for atrial fibrillation
This trial tests a new method called pulsed field ablation to treat atrial fibrillation (AF), a type of irregular heartbeat. It aims to safely stop AF episodes by targeting specific areas in the heart, and may help people with paroxysmal (coming and going) or persistent AF who haven't had this procedure before.
Austin, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT06335082Enrolling by invitation
Study of Farapulse ablation for atrial fibrillation
This registry is collecting information to see how well the Farapulse PFA system works and how safe it is for treating atrial fibrillation (AF), a common heart rhythm problem. If you are scheduled to have an ablation for AF with this system, this study will follow your progress.

What taking part in a atrial fibrillation study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
