New heart procedure could cut ablation time in half
NCT ID NCT05996159
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new, faster method for treating paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). About 150 adults will receive a heart ablation using very high power for short durations, aiming to reduce procedure time. The goal is to see if this approach is as effective as standard methods while being quicker and safer.
