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 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.
This study uses a very detailed map of your heart's upper left chamber to find areas causing your persistent atrial fibrillation. The goal is to understand the irregular heartbeat better and help doctors plan more precise treatment.
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.
