NCT07324772
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are very common conditions that often occur together and result in worsening symptoms and reduced quality of life (QoL). Limitations being able to participate in activities of daily living is a primary complaint for AF-HFpEF patients, yet effective strategies to address this issue remain limited. While exercise interventions targeting aerobic training (AT) are recommended for patients with AF and HFpEF, unique challenges exist in this patient population who tend to be older. Specifically, many older patients with AF and HFpEF have muscle weakness, sarcopenia and frailty, that can make aerobic-focused exercise difficult and less tolerable. This study proposes that starting with progressive resistance training (PRT) before aerobic exercise may overcome these issues by improving muscle strength, making AT more manageable, and leading to better health outcomes. The goal of this study is to assess whether a sequential exercise program, named 'PREACTIVE' improves how people feel, decrease the amount of symptoms, and their ability to participate in exercise and activities. This study will specifically test a sequenced exercise approach of resistance training followed by aerobic exercise to improve symptoms, and quality of life in AF-HFpEF.
NCT07301190
Single-shot pulsed-field ablation (PFA) catheters maximize pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) efficiency but are limited for focal or linear ablation. The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel, PFA catheter that transitions between large 'petals' (single-shot), and a small, spherical 'bud' (large-focal/linear), enabling a PVI-plus strategy in patients with persistent AF (PersAF). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is there an absence of serious procedure or device-related adverse events within 7 days? 2. Can the catheter achieve durable lesions? This trial enrolled patients with perAF , who were treated under general anesthesia with the shape-adaptive PFA catheter (PFLotus, bipolar, biphasic, 850 V, 60 μs, EnChannel Medical). Participants will: 1. Undergo PVI and linear ablation with the PFLotus PFA catheter under general anesthesia; 2. Undergo remapping within 3-month post the index ablation to assess the durability of the lesions; 3. Undergo follow-up occurred at 7 days, 30 days, 3, 6, and 12 months. Recurrence was assessed via 12-lead ECG at each visit and 24-hour or 7-day Holter monitoring at 6 and 12 months.
NCT05988411
This is a Prospective, controlled, single-blind, randomized (2:1, Intervention:Control) clinical trial. The purpose of the study is to determine the role of adjunctive renal sympathetic denervation in the prevention of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) recurrence in patients with hypertension scheduled for a redo AF ablation procedure for paroxysmal or persistent AF. Patients will be randomized to either i) AF ablation (Control) or ii) AF ablation + renal sympathetic denervation (Intervention).

NCT04041778
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of chronic heart rhythm disease worldwide, with significant associated co-morbidities. Although there have been advances in understanding the mechanisms of AF, the underlying cause of AF and factors which perpetuate it remain incompletely understood. This is particularly the case for persistent AF (persAF). Drug treatments for persAF have a role but can have undesirable side effects with relatively limited efficacy. Furthermore, current invasive therapies for persAF remain suboptimal, requiring significant resources, and with potentially serious complications for patients. Catheter ablation is an effective treatment for paroxysmal AF. For persistent AF (persAF), however, catheter ablation does not provide similar results. This is because there remains a poor understanding of the electrophysiological mechanisms driving persAF. Part of this study aims to further explore the specific locations that represent important substrates which would guide more effective catheter ablation. There have been several different ablation approaches explored in the past (see below), however, these did not improve the outcome post procedure compared with pulmonary vein isolation alone. A pilot study has already been carried out and I aim to expand this further with a larger cohort of patients (10-20) over 2 years. In this study the investigators want to explore whether stable high dominant frequency (HDF) sites (with a high organisation index) act as potential drivers of Atrial Fibrillation. Thus, targeting these sites may results in prolongation of the cycle length and thus possible termination of the arrhythmia.
NCT06175234
The purpose of this study is to gather data regarding the utilization of the FARAVIEW™ feature of the RHYTHMIA HDx Mapping System when used in conjunction with the FARAWAVE NAV Pulsed Field Ablation catheter in subjects undergoing catheter-based endocardial mapping and catheter-based ablation treatment of Atrial Fibrillation.
NCT06747091
A prospective multi-arm parallel group randomized clinical trial to compare the efficacy of three ablation strategies in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation using using a lattice-tip catheter that can switch between RFA and PFA energy. The incremental benefit of posterior wall isolation (PWI) and mitral isthmus ablation may contribute to greater freedom from atrial fibrillation at twelve months.
NCT06096246
The main aim of the research is to investigate whether patients undergoing pulmonary vein isolation with catheter ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) will have lower rates of AF recurrence than those treated by DC cardioversion without an ablation procedure.
NCT03907982
The main aim of the research is to investigate whether patients undergoing pulmonary vein isolation with cryoablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) will have lower rates of AF recurrence than those treated by DC cardioversion without an ablation procedure. The objectives of the Pilot Study are to validate the key study logistics with a view to optimising methods to be used in the main study.

NCT06962176
The goal of this clinical study is to find out which treatment works best for people with persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). Researchers are comparing two types of heart ablation procedures: * An anterior mitral line ablation (a treatment at the front part of the heart) * A posterior mitral line ablation (at the back of the heart), sometimes with an extra step using a small vein called the Vein of Marshall The main questions the study aims to answer are: * Which approach works better at fixing the heart rhythm? * Which approach is safer (less complications)? People who take part in this study will: * Undergo an ablation procedure as part of their standard care * Attend follow-up visits at 1, 3, and 6 months * Have tests like ECGs, heart ultrasound (echocardiogram), blood tests, heart rhythm monitors (Holter), and a heart CT scan
NCT06671197
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common arrhythmias in clinical practice, and there are more than 20 million AF patients in my country. Currently, rhythm control has become the main treatment option for AF, but there is still controversy over the best ablation procedure, especially whether other auxiliary ablation lines need to be added. Based on the existing clinical evidence, the durability and permeability of ablation damage are the main reasons for the differences. Pulsed electric field is a new ablation energy source based on the principle of cell electroporation. It has the characteristics of damage safety and permeability, so it is expected to solve the above dilemma. The study was divided into PVI (PVI-only) group according to the ratio of 1: 1, PVI + PWI + SVCI (posterior left atrial wall isolation and superior vena cava isolation) group. Through one-year follow-up of two groups of patients, the role of left atrial posterior wall and superior vena cava in the maintenance mechanism of persistent atrial fibrillation was explored, and the safety and effectiveness of domestic pulse ablation system were verified, which provided intellectual support for further medical and engineering integration
