Double whammy for AFib: single procedure aims to fix rhythm and prevent strokes
NCT ID NCT06686485
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests doing two heart procedures at the same time for people with atrial fibrillation. First, doctors use pulsed field energy to fix the heart's rhythm. Then, they implant a small device to close off a part of the heart where clots can form. The goal is to see if this combined approach is safe and works well. About 433 adults who need both treatments will take part.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
FARAPULSE PFA system and WATCHMAN LAAC device
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that combining two procedures in one session is safe and effective, simplifying treatment for atrial fibrillation patients.
What could go wrong
This is a mid-stage trial, so results may not confirm long-term benefits. There are risks from both the ablation and device implantation, including serious adverse events.
