Sleep quality after atrial fibrillation ablation
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how treating AFib with a procedure called catheter ablation might affect your sleep quality. You can join if you have AFib and are already planning to have this procedure, and you also have at least one risk factor for sleep apnea.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have atrial fibrillation (AFib) and be scheduled for a catheter ablation procedure.
- You must have at least one risk factor for sleep apnea (OSA), such as: high blood pressure, being male, having a BMI over 25, diabetes, or feeling very sleepy during the day or snoring.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether starting CPAP therapy (a breathing mask used during sleep) after a heart procedure called atrial fibrillation ablation can help people with both sleep apnea and atrial fibrillation. It might lower the chance of the heart rhythm problem coming back.
This trial is testing whether a structured exercise program (combining cardio and strength training) can help people who have already had a procedure to treat atrial fibrillation. It aims to see if this type of training can improve heart health and quality of life.
This study is using a smartphone app and a home sleep test to see if checking for sleep apnea helps people with atrial fibrillation feel better and have fewer heart rhythm episodes. The goal is to make monitoring easier for you at home.
This study tests whether listening to music during a common heart procedure for atrial fibrillation (called catheter ablation) can improve your experience while you are awake but relaxed. It may help you feel calmer and more comfortable.
This study investigates whether a catheter ablation procedure can improve wellbeing and reduce the risk of serious events for people 80 and older with symptomatic atrial fibrillation. The goal is to see if this treatment offers better outcomes than standard care in this age group.
This study looks at whether checking for sleep apnea (breathing pauses during sleep) and treating it helps people prepare for atrial fibrillation ablation. It may help by improving outcomes for patients with atrial fibrillation who keep having episodes despite medication.
