Convergent Ablation Plus Left Atrial Appendage Isolation for the Treatment of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This study compares a new heart procedure with standard treatment for a type of irregular heartbeat called persistent atrial fibrillation. The new procedure combines two methods to help improve heart rhythm and reduce complications like stroke. We want to see if it works better and is safe.

Hybrid Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation in Heart Failure
This study looks at a new way to treat persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) in people who also have heart failure. It compares a combined treatment (hybrid ablation) with the usual treatment to see which works best at keeping a steady heart rhythm.

Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Without the Evidence of Low-voltage Areas
This study looks at new ways to treat persistent atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat. It compares different procedures, including keyhole surgery called catheter ablation, to see which is safest and most effective in stopping the irregular heart rhythm, especially in areas of the heart with signs of damage.

BaLloon-based PFA Ablation poST Approval Outcomes for PAF and PersAF
This study looks at a new heart treatment called Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) using the Volt PFA System for people with irregular heartbeats (atrial fibrillation). It aims to see how safe and effective it is in real-world use for different patients.

Investigation of Cardioversion Versus Therapeutic Ablation for Persistent AF (ORBICA-AF)
This study compares two treatments for a type of irregular heartbeat called persistent atrial fibrillation (AF): a procedure called catheter ablation, and an electrical treatment called cardioversion. We want to see which one works better at keeping your heart rhythm normal for longer. It's for people aged 18-85.

STOP Persistent AF PAS
This study looks at how well a procedure called cryoablation works in the long term for people with persistent atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat. It's a follow-up study for a device approved in the US, checking its safety and how well patients do over three years.

A Study Assessing Arrhythmia Mapping With a Multi-Electrode Mapping Catheter
This study is looking at a new, special device to help doctors understand heart rhythm problems. It aims to see if this device, a 'mapping catheter', is safe and works well to find where irregular heartbeats are coming from in the upper (atria) and lower (ventricles) chambers of the heart.

Acute Responses to Exercise in Females and Males With Symptomatic Atrial Fibrillation
This study looks at how different types of exercise affect symptoms in men and women with atrial fibrillation (AF). Researchers want to see if moderate or high-intensity exercise changes AF symptoms in the short term, compared to not exercising much. This will help them plan bigger studies.

Correlation of the Arrhythmia Mechanism and Substrate to Ablate Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Study
This study looks at new ways to treat a type of irregular heartbeat called persistent atrial fibrillation. It uses special scans and heart mapping to guide a treatment called catheter ablation, hoping for better results.

Conquer-AF Protocol for Redo Ablation Procedures in Recurrent Paroxysmal and Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Using the Sphere-9 Catheter and Affera Ablation System (Conquer-AF)
This study looks at a new way to treat atrial fibrillation (AF), a common heart rhythm problem. It's for people who have already had one treatment for AF and it has come back. Doctors will use a special catheter to try and fix the irregular heartbeat.

Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) vs Anti-Arrhythmic Drug (AAD) Therapy as a First Line Treatment for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This study compares a new heart treatment called pulsed field ablation (PFA) with anti-arrhythmic drugs (AADs) for people with persistent atrial fibrillation. It aims to see if PFA is safe and works better as a first treatment.

A Prospective Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Pulmonary Vein Isolation Plus Box Isolation of Fibrotic Areas With the Globe® Pulsed Field System for Treating Patients With Symptomatic Paroxysmal or Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This study looks at a new way to treat atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) using a special device. It aims to see if this treatment, which uses gentle electrical pulses, is safe and works well for people who haven't responded to other medicines.

Comprehensive LEFt Atrial Appendage Occlusion With Rhythm Restoration
This study looks at combining two heart procedures: one to control an irregular heartbeat (AF) and another to reduce stroke risk. It's for people with AF who need both treatments and aims to see if doing them together is safe and works well.
