Tokyo, May 20 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000061552) titled 'Efficacy and Safety of Flower-Only Catheter Strategy Using Pulsed Field Ablation in Patients with Persistent Atrial Fibrillation' on May 20.

Study Type: Interventional

Study Design: Basic Design - Parallel Randomization - Randomized Blinding - Open -no one is blinded Control - Active

Primary Sponsor: Institute - Steel Memorial Yawata Hospital

Condition: Condition - Persistent atrial fibrillation Classification by malignancy - Others Genomic information - NO

Objective: Narrative objectives1 - The aim of this study is to demonstrate that pulmonary vein isolation and left atrial posterior wall isolation using flower and olive configurations for pulsed-field ablation (PFA) in persistent atrial fibrillation is non-inferior to the conventional approach using basket, flower, and olive configurations, and is associated with less hemolysis and acute kidney injury. Basic objectives2 - Safety,Efficacy

Intervention: Interventions/Control_1 - Conventional method (basket, flower, and olive configurations) Interventions/Control_2 - Flower strategy (flower and olive configurations only)

Eligibility: Age-lower limit - 20 years-old <= Age-upper limit - Not applicable Gender - Male and Female Key inclusion criteria - Patients undergoing PFA for persistent atrial fibrillation Key exclusion criteria - 1. Patients who have expressed refusal to participate in this study 2. Patients deemed inappropriate for participation by the attending physician 3. Patients on hemodialysis and patients with cardiomyopathy Target Size - 150

Recruitment Status: Recruitment status - Open public recruiting Date of protocol fixation - 2026 Year 02 Month 10 Day Date of IRB - 2026 Year 02 Month 25 Day Anticipated trial start date - 2026 Year 02 Month 26 Day Last follow-up date - 2028 Year 06 Month 30 Day
