U.S., Sept. 15 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07819175) titled 'Pulsed Field Ablation for the Treatment of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: Pulmonary Vein Plus Superior Vena Cava Isolation Versus Pulmonary Vein Isolation Alone-A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Study' on Sept. 08.
Brief Summary: his study is for people aged 18 to 75 who have persistent atrial fibrillation (AFib) that has lasted less than one year and who are having their first catheter ablation procedure.
