Comparing breathing method during heart ablation for AFib
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial studies two ways of using a breathing machine during a heart procedure called radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation (AFib). It aims to find which method is better and safer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AFib or irregular heartbeat).
- You are scheduled to have a catheter ablation treatment for your AFib under general anesthesia (fully asleep).
- You are 18 years old or older.

This trial studies different surgical techniques for treating atrial fibrillation during heart surgery. It may help people with a history of AFib who are already scheduled for open-heart 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.
This study tests advanced technology to improve how atrial fibrillation (AFib) is treated with a heart ablation procedure. It may help patients who are already advised to have AFib ablation by seeing how well the approach works in real clinical practice.
This trial compares two ways of performing a heart procedure called ablation to treat persistent atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat. The goal is to see which method works better and is safer for patients.
This study compares a newer, faster type of ablation (high-power short-duration) with the standard approach for treating atrial fibrillation. The goal is to see which method is safer and more effective at restoring a normal heart rhythm.
This trial compares two ways to treat persistent atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat that lasts for months or years). One method uses pulsed field energy and the other uses radiofrequency heat to fix the heart's electrical signals. The goal is to see which method is safer and more effective for patients having their first ablation procedure.
