Ablation for atrial fibrillation after mitral valve repair
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether catheter ablation (a procedure to correct irregular heartbeats) helps people with atrial fibrillation who have already had a successful MitraClip repair for a leaky mitral valve. It aims to see if the ablation improves heart rhythm and quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat).
- You have had a successful MitraClip procedure (a catheter-based repair for a leaky mitral valve) between 30 days and 6 months ago.
- You have not had a previous catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation.
- You have not had a heart attack, heart surgery, or stroke in the last 2 months.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the study.

This study is for people with atrial fibrillation who are planning to have a catheter ablation procedure. It will look at how well the heart works after the procedure and how to prevent future events.
This study tests whether a catheter ablation procedure (a way to fix abnormal heart rhythms) can help people who have both constant atrial fibrillation and severe mitral regurgitation (a leaky heart valve). It is for people whose heart valve leak is caused by the rhythm problem, not by valve damage.
This trial tests a procedure that combines two treatments for people with atrial fibrillation and a leaky mitral valve that causes symptoms. The procedure aims to fix the valve leak and restore normal heart rhythm, which may improve quality of life and reduce symptoms.
This trial tests two different ablation techniques to treat a type of irregular heartbeat that doesn't go away on its own. It aims to find which approach works better and is safer.
This study tests a new combination of treatments for people who have had atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) continuously for 1 to 3 years. The goal is to find a better way to restore normal heart rhythm and improve symptoms.
This study compares two types of ablation (a procedure that uses energy to fix irregular heartbeats) for people with persistent atrial fibrillation. It tests whether adding extra treatment to the back of the heart's left upper chamber helps improve outcomes compared to standard treatment alone.
