New heart procedure aims to stop persistent AFib in its tracks
NCT ID NCT07541989
First seen Apr 29, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026
Summary
This study tests two ways to treat a type of irregular heartbeat called persistent atrial fibrillation (AFib) that doesn't go away on its own. About 300 adults with drug-resistant AFib will receive a minimally invasive procedure using pulsed-field energy to destroy abnormal heart tissue. Half will get standard treatment, and half will get extra mapping to target more problem areas. The goal is to see which approach better prevents AFib from coming back over three years.
