Magnetic catheter ablation for fast heart rhythm problems
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new magnetic-guided catheter to treat rapid heart rhythms like atrial fibrillation or supraventricular tachycardia. It may help people who haven't found relief from medications or prefer a procedure without prior drug therapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have a fast heart rhythm problem called paroxysmal atrial fibrillation or supraventricular tachycardia (including AVNRT or AVRT).
- Your heart rhythm issue has been confirmed by a test like an EKG or Holter monitor within the last year.
- You have not had good results from at least one heart rhythm medication, or you choose to have the procedure without taking medication first.
- You do not have a left atrial thrombus (blood clot), a heart pump function below 40%, or an active implanted device like a pacemaker.
- You have not had a stroke or heart attack in the last 3 to 6 months, and you do not have severe liver, kidney, or bleeding disorders.

This trial tests a new catheter that can measure tissue temperature during ablation for rapid heartbeats like supraventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation. It aims to see if it is safe and effective.
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.
This study tests a new 3D heart-mapping system that helps doctors navigate during a procedure to treat paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat that can come and go). The system uses pressure and star-mapping technologies to make the treatment more precise and safer.
This trial tests a new catheter system (PulseMagic™ TrueForce™) to treat paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AFib) in people who haven't gotten enough relief from medicines. It's a study for those who have not had a prior ablation and meet specific heart health criteria.
This study tests a new catheter-based treatment for people with certain types of very fast or extra heartbeats that come from the lower chambers of the heart. The catheter uses a special energy to stop the abnormal beats and might help if you have had symptoms despite other treatments.
This study tests a new magnetic system (MAGiC) to guide heart ablation procedures for people with irregular heartbeats. It aims to see if using magnets to steer catheters is safe and effective.
