Pulmonary vein isolation for atrial flutter with heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a procedure called pulmonary vein isolation (which targets abnormal electrical signals in the heart) can help people who have both typical atrial flutter and heart failure. It aims to see if this treatment improves heart function and symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have typical atrial flutter and need a procedure to fix it (ablation).
- You have never had atrial fibrillation before.
- You have heart failure (NYHA class II or higher) and your NT-pro-BNP level is above a certain threshold.
- You have been on optimized heart failure medications for at least one month.
- You have been on blood thinners (anticoagulation) for at least three weeks.
- You are willing and able to sign a consent form.

This trial tests whether blocking extra heart electrical pathways during atrial flutter ablation surgery can help prevent atrial fibrillation (a more serious heart rhythm problem) from developing later. If you have atrial flutter and are planning ablation surgery, this study may help protect your heart's rhythm long-term.
This trial tests whether adding a vein ablation to standard catheter ablation helps people with persistent atrial fibrillation and heart failure. It aims to find the best treatment to improve heart function and reduce symptoms.
This study compares different treatments—pacing therapy, medications, and catheter ablation—for people who have both atrial fibrillation and heart failure. It aims to find the best way to improve your heart function and quality of life.
This study tests whether adding a modification to a standard heart procedure (pulmonary vein isolation) works better for people with persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat that lasts a long time). It may help find the best way to treat this condition.
This study tests a new way to treat persistent atrial fibrillation using short bursts of electricity (pulsed fields) to carefully reset the heart's rhythm. It may help people whose irregular heartbeat has not improved with medication.
This trial tests a new method called pulsed field ablation (PFA) to treat irregular heartbeats (atrial fibrillation) by isolating the veins that carry blood to your heart. It aims to see how well this procedure works and if it's safe for you.
