PERSISTENT ATRIAL FIBRILLATION

This study tested a new device called the DiamondTemp Ablation System to treat people with persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) that medication couldn't control. Researchers wanted to see if the device could safely restore a normal heart rhythm for at le…

This study tested a new system that uses pulsed energy to fix faulty electrical signals in the heart, aiming to stop episodes of atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). 392 adults with symptomatic AF that didn't improve with medication took part. The approach focuses on con…

This study tested a new freezing device (iCLAS™) to treat persistent atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat lasting over a week. 215 adults aged 18-80 received the procedure to see if it safely restores normal rhythm. The goal was to reduce serious complications and p…

This study tested a new procedure called pulsed field ablation (using the FARAPULSE system) in 669 people with persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) that did not get better with medication. The goal was to see if the procedure is safe and can restore a no…

This study tested whether burning extra heart tissue (the left atrial posterior wall) along with the standard vein isolation procedure reduces the return of atrial fibrillation in people with persistent AF. 110 adults with persistent AF who were having their first ablation took p…

This study tested a new feature called FARAVIEW on a heart mapping system used with a special catheter to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). Fifty adults with symptomatic AFib that didn't respond to medication took part. The goal was to see how well doctors could…

This study tested a new computer algorithm designed to help doctors see which areas of the heart need treatment during a procedure called ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). Researchers collected heart signal data from 37 adults during the…

This study looked at people with persistent atrial fibrillation who had a heart ablation. Two months later, they had a second procedure to check for reconnections in the treated veins and fix them. The goal was to see if this approach leads to better long-term results and to lear…

This study looked at 17 adults with persistent atrial fibrillation (a long-lasting heart rhythm problem) to find specific areas in the heart that may keep the condition going. Researchers used special mapping to identify stable high-frequency electrical signals. The goal was to u…
