Recruiting studies in Missouri
- NCT05014802Recruiting
MRI scans before heart surgery to predict post-surgery atrial fibrillation
This study uses an MRI scan before heart surgery to look for heart scarring that may predict who will develop atrial fibrillation afterward. Knowing the risk ahead of time could help doctors monitor you more closely and plan prevention.
St Louis, MissouriAges 40–120 - 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.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 22–85 - 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.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04088071Recruiting
Ablation for heart rhythm problems using a specific technology
This study looks at how well catheter ablation works for treating certain heart rhythm disorders (like atrial fibrillation or ventricular arrhythmias) using a specific brand of catheters. The aim is to gather real-world data to better understand the procedure's outcomes.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT03546374Recruiting
Stop a common heart rhythm with surgery add-on therapy
This study looks at whether an added heart device approach around the time of planned open-heart surgery can help treat non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), a long-lasting irregular heartbeat. It may help lower ongoing AF burden in people who also need non-emergency heart surgery.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04045665RecruitingPhase 3
Blood thinner vs usual care for new heart rhythm after bypass surgery
This trial tests whether using a blood thinner in people with new, temporary atrial fibrillation after CABG (heart bypass surgery) can reduce harmful outcomes compared with standard treatment. It may help prevent stroke or other complications if your rhythm problem fits the trial’s timing and risk profile.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06078735Recruiting
Device vs manual pressure for closing blood vessels after AFib procedure
This study compares two ways to close the vein entry after heart ablation for AFib: the LockeT device versus manual compression. It helps find which method works better.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05712200RecruitingPhase 3
Abelacimab for atrial fibrillation when blood thinners aren’t suitable
This Phase 3 study tests whether abelacimab can prevent stroke and other blood-clot problems in people with atrial fibrillation (or atrial flutter) who cannot safely take usual mouth blood thinners. It also looks at safety, especially bleeding risk.
Kansa City, MissouriAges 65 years+ - 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.
Springfield, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06055751Recruiting
Heart rhythm monitoring after aortic valve replacement
This trial studies people who had a heart valve procedure called TAVI and later had a heart rhythm problem. You will get a tiny heart monitor placed under your skin to track your heart rhythm over time and help doctors understand how common these problems are.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07122947Recruiting
Apple Watch to detect AFib after heart surgery
This study tests if an Apple Watch can help detect when atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) comes back after heart surgery. You'll wear an Apple Watch and a small skin patch (Zio Patch) to track your heart rhythm.
St Louis, MissouriAges 22 years+ - NCT05111015Recruiting
Ablation tracking study for people with atrial fibrillation
This study tracks results after a heart ablation procedure used to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). You may be asked to help by consenting and following the study plan so the researchers can better understand what happens after ablations.

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.

Common questions
- Are there atrial fibrillation clinical trials in Missouri?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 12 recruiting atrial fibrillation studies with a site in Missouri, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a atrial fibrillation study in Missouri?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Missouri to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Missouri, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a atrial fibrillation trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New atrial fibrillation studies open in Missouri regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
Clin2 helps you find and understand clinical trials and does not provide medical advice. Study data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov. Talk with your doctor about whether a specific trial is right for you.
