New Nerve-Zapping procedure aims to tame stubborn heart rhythm

NCT ID NCT05817318

Summary

This study is testing if a procedure called renal denervation can reduce episodes of atrial fibrillation (AFib) in patients whose irregular heartbeat keeps coming back after a standard ablation treatment. The procedure targets nerves near the kidneys to calm the nervous system, which may help control the heart's rhythm. Researchers will monitor 40 patients using a small implanted heart monitor to see if the procedure lowers how often and how long AFib episodes occur.
