Heart rhythm analysis for persistent atrial fibrillation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to analyze heart signals in people with long-standing atrial fibrillation that hasn't gotten better with medication. It may help doctors understand your heart rhythm better and guide future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have persistent atrial fibrillation (a long-lasting irregular heart rhythm).
- Your atrial fibrillation has not improved with medication or you cannot take the medicines.
- You have not had a procedure (ablation or MAZE) to treat your atrial fibrillation before.
- You do not have a blood clot in your heart (left atrial thrombus).
- Your kidneys are working well enough.
- You can follow up with the study team for one year.

This study looks at what happens in the heart in people with persistent atrial fibrillation when they undergo an ablation or Maze surgery. It may help doctors better understand the condition and improve future care for people needing these procedures.
This study looks at early changes in the heart related to atrial fibrillation (AF) using health data and biomarkers. It aims to find better ways to predict or understand AF, especially around procedures like ablation or cardioversion.
This study compares different computer “analysis methods” that look at real-time heart recordings from people with atrial fibrillation. It may help improve how atrial fibrillation is evaluated during/after an ablation procedure.
This study tests a new way to fix irregular heartbeats (atrial fibrillation) that have lasted over a year. It uses a special energy to create a maze-like pattern in the heart to reduce symptoms and improve your heart's rhythm.
This study tests whether an AI software can help doctors identify which people with persistent atrial fibrillation might need more than just a standard ablation procedure. The software analyzes heart signals during the ablation to guide treatment, potentially improving outcomes for people whose condition is more complex.
This study tests a new mapping technique to find chaotic electrical signals in the heart during persistent atrial fibrillation. It may help doctors better target treatment for people whose atrial fibrillation does not stop with medication.
