New Two-Pronged surgery targets stubborn heart rhythm disorder

NCT ID NCT05393180

Summary

This study is collecting long-term results on a two-part surgical procedure for people with a persistent form of atrial fibrillation (AF) that doesn't respond to medication. It involves 53 adults who have had continuous AF for over a year. Doctors use a special device to create scar tissue inside and outside the heart to block the faulty electrical signals causing the irregular heartbeat.
