Comparing two types of ablation for fast heart rhythm
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial compares two ablation methods (pulsed field vs. radiofrequency) to treat a fast heart rhythm called PSVT. It aims to see which works better and has fewer risks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a fast heart rhythm condition called AVNRT or AVRT.
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You are willing to have tests and check-ups for one year after the procedure.
- You have not had a failed ablation for this condition before.
- You do not have a pacemaker, serious heart disease, or other heart rhythm issues like atrial fibrillation.

This trial tests whether one ablation approach works better than another for paroxysmal (intermittent) atrial fibrillation by targeting the heart’s “triggers” and “substrate” (where the rhythm problem is). If you qualify, you’ll be randomly assigned to one of two ablation energy methods during a pulmonary vein isolation procedure.
This trial tests a new type of ablation (pulsed field ablation) against standard radiofrequency ablation for people with persistent atrial fibrillation that hasn't been controlled well by medication. The goal is to see which method works better and is safer.
This study tests a new way to treat paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) using pulsed field energy. The goal is to block abnormal electrical signals from the pulmonary veins and superior vena cava, which may help prevent AF episodes from coming back.
This trial tests two different catheters that use pulsed field energy to treat atrial fibrillation (a heart rhythm problem). It aims to find which one works better for people who need blood thinners but have a high risk of bleeding.
This trial compares a newer type of ablation (pulsed field) with the standard radiofrequency ablation for people with persistent atrial fibrillation that hasn't been treated with ablation before. The goal is to see which method works better and has fewer risks.
This trial tests a newer type of energy (pulsed field ablation) against the standard heat-based method (radiofrequency) for people who have already had one ablation and now have atrial fibrillation again. The goal is to see which works better for keeping your heart in a normal rhythm.
