Deep sedation for atrial fibrillation ablation

This study compares different ways of doing a procedure called catheter ablation to treat a type of atrial fibrillation that lasts longer than 7 days. They want to see if adding an extra step to the standard treatment helps more than just doing the standard treatment alone. If you join, you will be randomly assigned to one of the three treatment groups.

This trial tests whether a catheter procedure that treats atrial fibrillation works better than standard care for people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. It aims to improve heart rhythm symptoms and overall outcomes compared with conventional treatment.

This trial tests a new catheter system to treat atrial fibrillation (AF) by creating small scars in the heart to block faulty signals. It may help people with symptoms that continue despite medication and who are scheduled for a standard ablation procedure.

This trial compares two ways of giving sedation (sleepy medicine) during a procedure to restore normal heart rhythm in people with atrial fibrillation. One method uses a special brain monitor to guide sedation doses, while the other uses standard clinical judgment. The goal is to see if the brain monitor helps keep you safer and more comfortable.

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 trial compares two ways of keeping you comfortable during a pulsed-field ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation: conscious sedation (you're awake but relaxed) versus general anesthesia (you're fully asleep). The goal is to see which method is safer and more effective for patients like you.
