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 This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only

Summary

This study looks at two ways to treat atrial fibrillation (AF) that comes back after a first ablation. Patients who still have symptoms despite medication will be randomly assigned to either a repeat ablation or a pacemaker with AV node ablation. The goal is to see which approach improves quality of life more and to plan a larger future trial. Only 16 people will take part in this early phase.
