Heart Mapping to Personalize Atrial Fibrillation Treatment
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- You have been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat) that is paroxysmal (comes and goes) or persistent (constant)
- You are planning to have or have had a catheter ablation procedure for AF
- Your heart's pumping strength (ejection fraction) is 35% or higher
- You can attend a follow-up visit 3 months after the procedure
- You are not currently pregnant, breastfeeding, or having an active infection

This trial tests whether using a special heart-mapping device during ablation (a procedure to fix irregular heartbeats) can improve outcomes for people with persistent atrial fibrillation and an enlarged left heart chamber.
This study tests a new approach for people with atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) who are also at high risk for stroke. It combines a procedure to fix the heart's electrical signals with closing off a small pouch in the heart to reduce stroke risk, potentially avoiding long-term blood thinners.
This study tests a new way to measure electrical signals in the heart during a procedure called pulmonary vein isolation, which is used to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It aims to improve the accuracy of the treatment, which may help your heart stay in a normal rhythm for longer.
This study compares two techniques for treating persistent atrial fibrillation: one uses standard anatomy-based ablation, and the other uses a special mapping system to guide the procedure. It aims to find which method works better for people who have not had prior ablation.
This study looks at how personalized voltage maps of the heart's upper left chamber can help doctors better understand and treat persistent atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It aims to improve the success of a procedure called catheter ablation.
This trial tests whether a “virtual” computer map created from your heart scans can help doctors do catheter ablation to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). It aims to improve the procedure for people whose AF symptoms were not controlled well with anti-arrhythmia medicines.
