New zap-and-heal heart device tested in first human study
NCT ID NCT07452211
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new device that uses short electrical pulses to treat a type of irregular heartbeat called paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Ten patients received the procedure to see if it was safe and could stop the heart rhythm problem for at least 12 months. The goal was to check if the device could effectively isolate the veins that trigger the irregular beats.
