This randomized sham-controlled study tested low-level electromagnetic field stimulation (3.2 × 10 G at 0.89 Hz) applied around the head in patients undergoing ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Eighteen patients completed the protocol, and LL-EMF was associated with shorter pacing-induced AF episodes after…

This animal study tested whether extremely low-level pulsed EMF (0.034 μG, 0.952 Hz) could suppress induced atrial fibrillation in 17 anesthetized dogs. EMF applied to cervical vagal trunks or across the chest was reported to suppress neural firing in the anterior right ganglionated plexi. The authors report that EMF…
