New catheter shows promise in heart ablation study
NCT ID NCT07078760
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested two different catheters (lattice-tip vs standard irrigated-tip) for a heart procedure called ablation, which treats a fast heartbeat (atrial flutter). 102 adults received the procedure to see which catheter works better and faster with fewer side effects. The goal was to block abnormal electrical signals in the heart more effectively.
