Summary

This study tests a new approach for people with end-stage heart failure and a fast, irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation). Participants will get a special pacemaker and a small procedure to control the heart's rhythm, plus an implantable defibrillator (ICD). The goal is to see if this combination reduces the risk of death, need for a heart transplant, or hospitalization compared to getting an ICD alone. The study involves 120 adults who are already being considered for a heart transplant or a mechanical heart pump.
