This trial tests whether using a special heart-mapping device during ablation (a procedure to fix irregular heartbeats) can improve outcomes for people with persistent atrial fibrillation and an enlarged left heart chamber.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07130773Recruiting
Comparing two catheter types for atrial fibrillation ablation
This trial compares two types of special catheters (thin tubes) used during a procedure called ablation to treat atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat). It aims to see which catheter works better during the procedure, and may help improve future treatments for people with heart rhythm problems.
Lugano, Canton TicinoAges 18 years+ - NCT07047235Recruiting
Targeted ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation
This trial is testing a specific approach to catheter ablation for people with persistent atrial fibrillation. It aims to improve how abnormal heart tissue is targeted to help restore a normal rhythm.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06995391Recruiting
Alcohol reduction app for atrial fibrillation
This trial tests if a smartphone app can help people with atrial fibrillation reduce or stop drinking alcohol. The goal is to see if cutting down on alcohol makes AF symptoms less severe or occur less often.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT05427435Recruiting
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+ - NCT06324201Recruiting
Long-term safety of a new ablation system for paroxysmal AF
This study tests a new system (QDOT MICRO and VISITAG SURPOINT) used during a catheter ablation procedure to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). It aims to see how safe and effective it is over the long term for people whose AF comes and goes and hasn't been controlled by medication.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06096246Recruiting
Comparing treatments for persistent atrial fibrillation
This study compares two treatments for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) that lasts more than 7 days but less than 2 years: electrical cardioversion (a shock to reset your heart rhythm) versus catheter ablation (using radio waves to fix the heart's electrical pathways). It aims to find which option works better for patients like you.
LondonAges 18–85 - NCT05976685Recruiting
Close the left atrial appendage after stroke despite blood thinners
This study tests whether closing a heart pouch called the left atrial appendage can prevent future strokes in people with atrial fibrillation who had an ischemic stroke even while taking blood thinners. It may help reduce stroke risk by blocking a common place where clotting can start.
BrugesAges 18 years+ - NCT05996159Recruiting
Using very high power for short duration to treat atrial fibrillation
This study tests a new way to perform a common procedure (pulmonary vein isolation) for people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Instead of using the standard amount of energy for a longer time, this method uses a very high amount of energy for a very short time. This might make the procedure faster and just as safe.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06200311Recruiting
Atrial fibrillation ablation to prevent heart damage in women and men
This trial tests whether a procedure called AF ablation (which treats irregular heartbeats) can stop further damage to the heart muscle caused by atrial fibrillation. It may help people with both atrial fibrillation and early signs of heart muscle weakening.
GroningenAges 65–80 - 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 - NCT07139301Recruiting
Timing of blood thinners after stroke clot removal in atrial fibrillation
This study aims to find the best time to start blood thinners after emergency clot removal in people with atrial fibrillation who had a stroke. It may help reduce the risk of another stroke or bleeding.
Ma’anshan, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06954610Recruiting
Heart Check for Stroke Risk in Atrial Fibrillation
This trial uses heart imaging to better understand stroke risk in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It may help doctors decide on the best treatment to prevent another stroke.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT06716021RecruitingPhase 3
Etripamil for rapid heart rate in atrial fibrillation
This trial tests a medication called etripamil to see if it can quickly slow down a rapid heart rate during episodes of atrial fibrillation. It may help people who have frequent, long-lasting episodes with a fast heartbeat.
West Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04685317Recruiting
Sentinel brain-protection device during atrial fibrillation ablation
This trial tests whether a specialized “brain protection” device can improve safety during atrial fibrillation (AF) catheter ablation. It may help reduce the risk of stroke or related complications while treating AF.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 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.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT03862859RecruitingPhase 4
Warfarin safety for people with atrial fibrillation on dialysis
This trial studies whether the blood thinner warfarin is safe and effective for preventing stroke and blood clots in people who have atrial fibrillation and need long-term dialysis. It may help your care team better balance clot prevention against bleeding risk.
Herlev, HerlevAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06021808Recruiting
LAA clip vs. blood thinners to prevent stroke in non-paroxysmal AF
This study compares two ways to prevent stroke in people with persistent or long-standing atrial fibrillation (AF): taking a blood thinner (NOAC) or having a minimally invasive procedure to clip off the left atrial appendage (LAA). The goal is to see which approach works better at preventing stroke without causing major bleeding.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05610215Recruiting
Hybrid or catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation in hypertrophic heart
This trial compares two procedures to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) in people who also have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (thickened heart muscle). It looks at whether the hybrid approach or a catheter-based approach works better for controlling symptoms and heart rhythm.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05679024RecruitingPhase 3
Apixaban to prevent stroke in atrial fibrillation and kidney failure
This trial tests apixaban (a blood thinner) to prevent stroke in people with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter who have very poor kidney function or are on dialysis. If you qualify, you may help researchers find a safer way to lower stroke risk for this higher-risk group.
HelsinkiAges 18 years+ - NCT07436299Recruiting
New ultrasound method for heart pressure in atrial fibrillation
This study tests a new way to use ultrasound (echocardiogram) to measure heart pressure in people who have both heart failure and atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat).
