First seen Mar 05, 2026 · Last updated May 09, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study looked at whether a combination drug (sacubitril/valsartan) can prevent atrial fibrillation from returning after a catheter ablation procedure in older adults with high blood pressure. About 320 people aged 55-80 took either the combination drug or a standard blood pressure medication for 12 months. The goal was to see if the combination drug works better at keeping the heart in a normal rhythm.
