Pulsed energy heart treatment for intermittent atrial fibrillation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a newer pulsed energy technique to treat a type of irregular heartbeat that comes and goes. It targets specific heart areas to help restore a normal rhythm, potentially reducing symptoms and improving quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have intermittent atrial fibrillation that stops on its own within 7 days.
- You are willing to sign a consent form and attend follow-up visits.
- You have not had a prior catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation.
- You have no blood clot in the heart, no recent stroke or heart attack (within last month), and no condition that prevents blood thinners.
- You are not pregnant or planning pregnancy, and your thyroid condition is under control if you have one.

This trial tests a newer treatment called pulsed field ablation (PFA) for people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), where the heart's rhythm is irregular and comes and goes on its own within 7 days. The goal is to see if PFA can restore a normal heart rhythm while better protecting the heart's left atrial function, which helps pump blood effectively. If you have AF and medications haven't worked, this could be an option to discuss with your doctor.
This trial tests a new way to deliver energy (FARAPULSE PFA system) to treat atrial fibrillation (AF), a type of irregular heartbeat. It aims to see if these new waveforms can safely and effectively stop AF symptoms and improve quality of life.
This study tests a new way to treat atrial fibrillation using targeted electrical pulses (pulsed field ablation) instead of heat or cold. The goal is to improve safety and outcomes for people with paroxysmal or persistent AF.
This study tests a new heart procedure using pulsed field ablation (a type of energy to fix irregular heartbeats) for people who have had atrial fibrillation for less than a year. It may help restore a normal heart rhythm and reduce symptoms.
This trial studies a new procedure called pulsed field ablation to treat brief episodes of atrial fibrillation (AFib). The goal is to see if it can help reset the heart's natural electrical system and reduce symptoms.
This study tests a new way to treat atrial fibrillation (AFib) using pulsed electrical energy to target the heart tissue that causes the irregular rhythm. It aims to see if this method is safe and effective for people having their first such treatment.
