Recruiting studies near Tampa
- 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.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 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.
Tampa, FloridaAges 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.
Tampa, FloridaAges 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.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT02932007RecruitingPhase 2
Chloroquine to treat ongoing atrial fibrillation symptoms
This trial tests whether chloroquine can reduce symptoms in people with persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), an irregular heartbeat that lasts longer than a week. It will also closely monitor heart rhythm and safety, since the medicine can affect the heart and other organs.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06935591Recruiting
AI-guided ablation for hard-to-treat atrial fibrillation
This trial uses an artificial intelligence system (vMap) to find and target abnormal electrical signals outside the pulmonary veins that may be driving atrial fibrillation (AF). The goal is to improve ablation results for people with persistent or recurrent AF.
Tampa, FloridaAges 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.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05826665Recruiting
Study of heart rhythm mapping during AF ablation
This is an observational study that looks at how a special heart mapping system may affect the procedure and outcomes for people having ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). It may help doctors better understand what works best and how procedures turn out.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 18–80 - 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.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07626411RecruitingPhase 3
Blood Thinner Study for Irregular Heartbeat
This study tests a new blood thinner to prevent strokes and blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation (a common heart rhythm problem). You may qualify if you have atrial fibrillation and at least one risk factor for stroke, or if you've never taken a blood thinner before.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 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.

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.
