Heart fix without X-Ray: new study tests safer ablation for AFib
NCT ID NCT06719921
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two ways of doing a heart procedure called catheter ablation for people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). One method uses X-rays to guide the doctor, and the other does not. The goal is to see if the no-X-ray method works just as well and is as safe. About 724 adults aged 18 to 80 with AFib will take part, and the main focus is on whether their heart rhythm stays normal for a year after the procedure.
