Exercise and diet to reduce AFib burden
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether a program of exercise and healthy eating changes can reduce how often atrial fibrillation (AFib) happens and help you lose weight. It may be a good fit if you are overweight, have AFib, and are ready to make lifestyle changes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 27 or higher (your doctor can help check).
- You have atrial fibrillation (AFib) that comes and goes or lasts for a while but isn't permanent.
- You have a smartphone or device that can track your heart rhythm.
- You are able to exercise and follow the study's instructions.

This study looks at whether losing weight can help reduce the progression of atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It might help people who are overweight and have AF symptoms.
This study tests if starting a supervised exercise program can help older adults with both atrial fibrillation and a type of heart failure called HFpEF feel better and have a better quality of life. You'll be asked to join exercise sessions and have regular check-ins to see how you're doing.
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 tests whether special care strategies can help obese patients have better results after a catheter ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation (a heart rhythm problem). Catheter ablation uses heat or cold to fix the irregular heartbeats.
This study looks for unique metabolic patterns in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). The goal is to develop personalized prevention strategies by comparing these patterns between patients and healthy volunteers.
This trial tests whether guided exercise at home helps people recover better after a procedure called catheter ablation, which treats an irregular heartbeat. It may improve your strength and overall recovery.
