Studying a new sedation combo for afib treatment
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a mild sedation method using remimazolam and fentanyl during a procedure called pulsed-field ablation for atrial fibrillation (afib). It aims to find a safe and effective way to keep you comfortable without deep sedation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a streamlined sedation approach during pulsed-field ablation, a newer technique to treat irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation). Researchers want to confirm it's safe and practical.
This trial compares two sedation methods during a procedure to restore normal heart rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation. It tests whether a cardiologist can safely give one sedative (midazolam) instead of requiring an anesthesiologist with a different sedative (propofol).
This trial compares two types of anesthesia (lighter sedation vs. deeper sleep) during a procedure called pulsed field ablation, which treats irregular heartbeats. The study aims to determine which anesthesia approach works best and is safest for patients like you.
This study tests whether listening to music during a common heart procedure for atrial fibrillation (called catheter ablation) can improve your experience while you are awake but relaxed. It may help you feel calmer and more comfortable.
This trial compares deep sedation methods during catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. It aims to find which sedation approach is safer and more comfortable for people with AF who have not had this procedure before.
This study compares two ways to keep you comfortable during a minimally invasive procedure to treat irregular heartbeats (atrial fibrillation): lighter sedation where you're drowsy but responsive, versus deeper anesthesia where you're fully asleep. The goal is to see which approach is safer and works better for a newer ablation technique called pulsed-field ablation.
