Sleep secrets of AFib patients revealed in new study
NCT ID NCT07259200
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at sleep quality in 100 people with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who are scheduled for a heart procedure called pulmonary vein isolation. Participants will have four non-invasive sleep tests—two before and two after the procedure—to measure breathing, heart rate, and oxygen levels. The goal is to see if the heart procedure improves sleep-related breathing problems like sleep apnea.
