New heart mapping could make AFib ablation more effective

NCT ID NCT07630857

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a new way to guide catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF), a common heart rhythm problem. The technique uses unipolar voltage mapping to find specific electrical signals (QS potentials) that may help keep AF going. Researchers will compare this personalized approach to standard ablation in 200 people with AF, checking if it reduces recurrence after 3 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
catheter ablation guided by unipolar QS-potential mapping
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a more personalized and effective ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation, potentially reducing the chance of the heart rhythm problem coming back.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with only 200 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The new mapping technique may not be better than the standard approach, and there are typical risks of catheter ablation like bleeding or heart damage.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 200 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start
