Exercise training to reduce atrial fibrillation episodes
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if a specific exercise program can reduce how often atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) happens. If you have non-permanent atrial fibrillation and are willing to follow an exercise plan, this trial might help you manage your condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 74 years old.
- You have atrial fibrillation that comes and goes (not constant).
- Your resting heart rate is 110 beats per minute or lower.
- You have not had a formal exercise plan in the last 6 months.
- You are willing to use a smart device (like a phone or tablet) for the study.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies how an exercise training program affects people with persistent or permanent atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). It may help improve how you feel and how well your heart and body handle activity.
This trial tests whether exercise can help people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm that can come and go or last for a while). You might benefit if you have this condition, are between 18 and 80, and have not been very active.
This study tests whether using a Fitbit activity tracker and a supportive exercise program helps people with AFib become more active. It may help you feel better and manage your heart rhythm.
This study tests whether a combination of catheter ablation (a procedure to correct irregular heartbeats) and a structured exercise program can improve symptoms and quality of life in people with diastolic heart failure and a recent onset of persistent atrial fibrillation.
This trial tests if a gentle heart-assist device (EECP) combined with a structured exercise and education program (cardiac rehab) can improve health for people with atrial fibrillation. It may help strengthen your heart and reduce symptoms without drugs or surgery.
This trial looks at whether a special heart rhythm treatment called “ablation” works well when done during certain heart operations. It may help reduce atrial fibrillation (AF) symptoms or future abnormal rhythm episodes for people who are already having surgery.
