Tiny study tests algorithm to improve ablation accuracy
NCT ID NCT06877156
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This pilot study involved 9 people with atrial fibrillation undergoing a first-time pulsed field ablation procedure. Researchers collected heart signal data to test a new algorithm that automatically measures local electrical activity. The goal was to see if the automated measurements match manual readings, which could help improve future ablation procedures.

Inclusion Criteria: * Subjects with paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing first time PFA procedure 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 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.
