LA function after pulse field ablation for paroxysmal AF
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests how pulse field ablation (a treatment that uses short electrical pulses to correct irregular heartbeats) affects the left atrium's function in people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AFib that comes and goes). It may help if you have paroxysmal AFib and are in normal rhythm at the start of the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AFib that starts and stops on its own)
- You are in normal heart rhythm (sinus rhythm) when the procedure begins
- You have not had a prior atrial ablation procedure
- You do not have significant valve disease in your heart
- You have not had a left atrial appendage closure procedure
- You do not have persistent or long-standing AFib

This trial tests a new way to treat non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) using a focused type of ablation (pulsed-field energy) on specific areas of the heart. It aims to see if targeting the left atrial wall and mitral isthmus can improve outcomes for people who have not had this procedure before.
This study tests a new way to do a heart procedure (catheter ablation) for people with ongoing atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It uses pulsed-field energy to create a block in the heart that stops abnormal electrical signals. The goal is to improve the procedure's success and reduce risks.
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 trial tests a new type of heart procedure called pulsed field ablation for people with persistent atrial fibrillation (a long-lasting irregular heartbeat). It compares three different ways to use this ablation to try to restore a normal heart rhythm and reduce symptoms.
This study tests a special catheter that uses pulsed field energy to ablate (destroy) the tiny areas in the heart causing irregular heartbeats. It is designed for people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (episodes that come and go) that hasn't been controlled by medication.
This study looks at how a new type of heart procedure, called pulsed field ablation, affects the heart's structure in people with persistent atrial fibrillation. It may help doctors understand if this treatment improves heart function over time.
