New heart device aims to zap away irregular rhythm

NCT ID NCT05501873

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 This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study is tracking over 1,100 people with atrial fibrillation who are treated with the FARAPULSE system, a device that uses electrical pulses to destroy tiny areas of heart tissue causing the irregular rhythm. The goal is to see how well it works and how safe it is in everyday hospital use. Researchers will check if patients stay in normal rhythm for at least 12 months after the procedure.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
FARAPULSE Pulsed Field Ablation system (a device that uses electrical pulses to destroy abnormal heart tissue)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could confirm that pulsed field ablation is a safe and effective way to treat atrial fibrillation and restore normal heart rhythm.
What could go wrong
This is an observational registry, not a controlled trial, so results may be less definitive. Risks include device- or procedure-related serious side effects, and long-term benefits are still being studied.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Subjects intended to be treated with the FARAPULSE™ Pulsed Field Ablation system for cardiac tissue ablation, per physician's medical judgement, and as per hospitals' standard of care 2. Subjects who are willing and capable of providing informed consent 3. Subjects who are willing and capable of participating in all testing associated with this clinical study at an approved clinical investigational center 4. Subjects whose age is 18 years or above, or who are of legal age to give informed consent specific to state and national law Exclusion Criteria: 1. Subjects with a current interatrial baffle or patch 2. Subjects with a known or suspected atrial myxoma 3. Subjects with a myocardial infarction within 14 days prior to enrollment 4. Subjects with a recent (within 30 days prior to enrollment) Cerebral Vascular Accident (CVA) 5. Subjects who do not tolerate anticoagulation therapy 6. Subjects with an active systemic infection \* 7. Subjects with a presence of atrial known thrombus \* 8. Subjects with a known inability to obtain vascular access 9. Subjects who are pregnant or planning to be pregnant 10. Subjects with atrial fibrillation that is secondary to electrolyte imbalance, thyroid disease, alcohol, or other reversible / non-cardiac causes 11. Subjects with any prosthetic heart valve, ring or repair including balloon aortic valvuloplasty 12. Subjects with a contraindication to an invasive electrophysiology procedure where insertion or manipulation of a catheter in the cardiac chambers is deemed unsafe per physician's medical judgement, such as, but not limited to, a recent previous cardiac surgery (eg. ventriculotomy or atriotomy, CABG, PTCA/PCI/coronary stent procedure/unstable angina) and/or in patients with congenital heart disease where the underlying abnormality increases the risk of the ablation (e.g., severe rotational anomalies of the heart or great vessels) 13. Subjects with a life expectancy of ≤ 1 year per investigator's opinion 14. Subjects who are currently enrolled in another investigational study or registry that would directly interfere with the current study, except when the subject is participating in a mandatory governmental registry, or a purely observational registry with no associated treatments. Each instance must be brought to the attention of the sponsor to determine eligibility
