NCT ID NCT02133365
Summary
This small pilot study explored whether a mindfulness-based therapy could help people with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who also experience significant anxiety. Thirteen participants with AFib and high anxiety sensitivity received four to five individual sessions. The goal was to see if learning to manage anxiety could reduce AFib symptoms, improve quality of life, and potentially lower the chance of AFib returning.
