Atrial fibrillation and high blood pressure ablation plus kidney nerve treatment
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether treating atrial fibrillation with a catheter procedure plus treating high blood pressure through kidney nerve treatment works better together. It may help control rhythm and blood pressure, but you must meet several heart, kidney-artery, and safety requirements.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age between 18 and 75 years
- You have atrial fibrillation confirmed on an ECG (heart tracing)
- Your blood pressure is high despite usual care (clinic or 24-hour monitoring)
- You can safely undergo the planned procedures based on kidney-artery anatomy
- You are not pregnant and you can sign the study consent

This trial studies a procedure called renal nerve denervation (ablation) to improve kidney-related blood pressure in people whose blood pressure stays high despite medications. It may help some people lower blood pressure and improve blood pressure control over time.
This study tests whether treating kidney-related nerves along with the usual AF (irregular heartbeat) catheter procedure works better than the usual procedure alone. It may help some people with persistent AF, but you must meet specific heart and kidney safety requirements.
This study tests a new device that uses energy to calm kidney nerves, which may help lower blood pressure in people with chronic kidney disease whose blood pressure stays high despite taking multiple medications.
This trial tests a new way to perform a procedure called renal denervation, which uses radio waves to calm overactive kidney nerves that can raise blood pressure. By getting feedback during the procedure, doctors hope to make the treatment more effective for people with high blood pressure.
This trial tests a procedure that targets nerves near the kidney (renal denervation) to help lower blood pressure in people whose hypertension is not controlled despite medication. It uses a special 3D mapping system to guide the procedure.
This study tests a procedure called renal denervation to treat mild hypertension (high blood pressure) in people not taking medication. It uses radio waves to calm overactive kidney nerves, which may help lower blood pressure.
