NCT ID NCT07149545

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tested three different drug combinations to keep patients comfortable and still during a heart procedure called pulsed field ablation for atrial fibrillation. 240 adults were randomly assigned to one of three sedation groups. The goal was to see which method achieved the right level of sedation without causing breathing or blood pressure problems.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Fentanyl, Midazolam, Flurbiprofen axetil, Dexmedetomidine
What this could lead to
If successful, this could identify a safer and more effective sedation method for patients undergoing pulsed field ablation for atrial fibrillation.
What could go wrong
This is a single-center, completed trial with a focus on sedation success, not long-term outcomes. Results may not apply to all hospitals or patient groups.
