Pulsed field ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new heart procedure using pulsed field ablation (a type of energy to fix irregular heartbeats) for people who have had atrial fibrillation for less than a year. It may help restore a normal heart rhythm and reduce symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat) has lasted less than 1 year
- You are between 18 and 75 years old
- You have not had a prior procedure to fix atrial fibrillation (like ablation or heart surgery)
- You do not have a pacemaker, defibrillator, or similar implanted heart device
- You are willing to attend follow-up visits and follow the study plan

This trial tests a new procedure that uses pulsed electric fields to treat persistent atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective in restoring a normal heart rhythm.
This trial tests a new type of ablation (pulsed-field) to treat persistent atrial fibrillation (AFib) that lasts more than 7 days. You may qualify if you have symptoms and haven't had other heart ablation procedures except for one specific type.
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.
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 newer, gentler way to fix irregular heartbeats in people with paroxysmal AF. The treatment uses special energy (pulsed fields) guided by 3D imaging to target the heart tissue causing the problem, and the goal is to restore a normal rhythm with fewer risks.
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.
