NCT ID NCT05922917
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests two different ablation techniques using a new, safer method called pulsed-field ablation (PFA) in 300 adults with persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). One group gets standard vein isolation, while the other gets additional targeted burns in the heart. The goal is to see which approach better prevents the return of irregular heartbeats over 12 months.
