New software aims to perfect heart ablation by reading electrical signals
NCT ID NCT07379697
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test a new software system that measures tiny electrical signals in the heart after a procedure called pulsed field ablation, used to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). Researchers will enroll 30 adults with AF who are already scheduled for ablation. The goal is to find a clear signal level that tells doctors the treatment is complete, which could lead to more consistent and effective procedures in the future.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ECGenius System with PFAnalyzer software
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors better determine when a heart ablation is complete, potentially improving outcomes for atrial fibrillation patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early observational study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. It does not test a new treatment, only a measurement method.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Subjects undergoing first time pulmonary vein isolation indicated by investigator for the treatment of atrial fibrillation. * Male or non-pregnant female aged ≥18 years. * Able and willing to provide written informed consent prior to any clinical investigation related procedure. * Subjects in sinus rhythm at the time of the PFA application. Exclusion Criteria: * Pregnant or nursing subjects. * Current participation in another investigational drug or device study that interferes with this study. * Subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, are not candidates for this study. * Patients who have had a prior ablation procedure. * Presence of other anatomic or comorbid conditions, or other medical, social, or psychological conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, could limit the subject's ability to participate in the clinical investigation or to comply with follow-up requirements, or impact the scientific soundness of the clinical investigation results. * Life expectancy is less than 12 months, in the opinion of the investigator. * Subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, are considered part of any vulnerable population. * Subjects unlikely to be in sinus rhythm at the time of the procedure or unlikely to remain in sinus rhythm after cardioversion
