Recruiting studies near Detroit
- 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.
Detroit, MichiganAges 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.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06844227Recruiting
Virtual Visit to Manage Blood Thinners Around Surgery
This study looks at whether a virtual visit can safely manage your blood thinners around the time of a planned surgery. You would stop your medication before the procedure and restart it after, but all instructions and check-ins happen remotely (phone or video).
Detroit, MichiganAges 18–100 - 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.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06957366Recruiting
Managing Blood Thinners Before High-Risk Surgery
This study looks at how to safely manage your blood thinner (DOAC) around the time of a planned, high-bleed-risk surgery or procedure involving a spinal needle. The goal is to find the best way to stop and restart your medication to prevent bleeding and clotting problems.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - 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.
Royal Oak, MichiganAges 18 years+ - 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.
Royal Oak, MichiganAges 18–80 - 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.
Royal Oak, MichiganAges 18–80 - NCT06578104Recruiting
Pulsed AF Study: PulseSelect Catheter for Afib
This study tests a new way to treat atrial fibrillation (Afib) using a special catheter system called PulseSelect that delivers short bursts of energy to create scar tissue in the heart. It is for people whose Afib comes and goes or stays for a while but not more than a year, and who have not had a prior ablation procedure or have a pacemaker or defibrillator.
Royal Oak, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07430956RecruitingPhase 3
Stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation without standard blood thinners
This trial tests a new medication to prevent strokes and blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) who cannot safely take standard blood thinners. The drug works by blocking a different clotting factor, which may lower bleeding risks.
Farmington Hills, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07175428RecruitingPhase 2
Safety of a New Blood Thinner in AFib Patients
This study tests the safety of a new blood thinner for people with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who need long-term stroke prevention. If you qualify, the study will compare this medication to standard anticoagulation therapy.
Farmington Hills, MichiganAges 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.
Ypsilanti, MichiganAges 22 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.
Ypsilanti, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06959121Recruiting
Treating AFib during open-heart surgery with a new device
This trial tests a new device used during open-heart surgery to treat atrial fibrillation (AFib) by delivering tiny, fast electrical pulses to the heart tissue. It is for people who are already having heart surgery and want to also treat their AFib at the same time.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18–85 - 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.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18–80 - 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.

What taking part in a persistent 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.
