New registry aims to perfect heart ablation workflow
NCT ID NCT06656884
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 28, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This registry is collecting data from over 500 patients with atrial fibrillation who are treated with the FARAPULSE ablation system in routine care. The goal is to identify which pre-procedure, procedure, and follow-up steps work best for different types of patients. Researchers will look at how patient characteristics, procedure choices, and safety events relate to long-term success.
