Biofeedback for managing paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether biofeedback—a technique that helps you learn to control your body's stress responses—can help people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat that comes and goes) manage their condition better. If you have this kind of AFib and are otherwise stable, this study may be a good fit.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You have been diagnosed with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AFib that starts and stops on its own)
- Your condition is stable and well-managed with your current treatments
- You do not have other serious heart problems (like heart failure, unstable angina, or a recent heart attack or stroke)
- You do not have a pacemaker or heart transplant in the last 6 months

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new treatment that uses two types of energy (pulsed field and radiofrequency) to fix the heart's electrical signals in people with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AFib that comes and goes). It aims to be more effective and safer than standard ablation alone.
This trial tests a new type of heart procedure that uses gentle electrical pulses to fix abnormal signals in the upper chambers of the heart for people with a specific type of atrial fibrillation that comes and goes on its own. It may be an option if your AFib episodes stop within 7 days and medications haven't helped enough.
This trial studies a new type of energy, called pulsed field ablation, to treat a heart rhythm problem called paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). The goal is to safely isolate the areas of the heart causing the irregular beats, which may help reduce symptoms.
This trial tests a new balloon device that uses gentle energy pulses to treat atrial fibrillation (AF), a type of irregular heartbeat. It may help people whose AF has not improved with medication.
This study tests whether using a Fitbit activity tracker and a supportive exercise program helps people with AFib become more active. It may help you feel better and manage your heart rhythm.
This trial tests a new way to map the heart's electrical signals to help doctors better target and treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). If you're having a procedure to treat AF, this study may help improve the success of your treatment.
