Comparative Study of Intra-abdominal Pressure Using Accuryn Monitoring System During Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) for Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation and/or Atrial Flutter Under Sedation.

Sponsor

Wake Forest University Health Sciences

Enrollment

50 participants

Start Date

Mar 3, 2026

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Intra-Abdominal Hypertension

Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the intra-abdominal pressure utilizing the Accuryn monitoring system during pulsed field ablation procedures in the electrophysiology lab compared to the type of anesthetic utilized.

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is measuring abdominal pressure changes during pulse field ablation — a procedure that uses short electrical pulses to treat an irregular heartbeat called atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter — to see if abdominal pressure monitoring is a useful safety measure. **You may be eligible if...** - You are an adult (18 or older) - You are scheduled to receive pulse field ablation as standard treatment for atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter - You are able to have a Foley catheter (bladder catheter) placed safely **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are under 18 - You have had abdominal surgery within the past 6 months - You have contraindications to bladder catheterization (such as prostate problems or frequent urinary tract infections) - You are pregnant or breastfeeding Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
