First seen Nov 18, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This study compares two types of heart procedures—convergent hybrid ablation and standard catheter ablation—in 120 adults with persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) and heart failure. The goal is to see which approach better controls heart rhythm without the need for long-term medication. Participants must have a moderately enlarged left atrium and reduced heart pumping function.
