This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is studying whether weight loss surgery can help people with a specific type of heart failure (where the heart doesn't pump blood out efficiently) who also have irregular heartbeat and are overweight. Half of the participants will receive weight loss surgery along with intensive support before and after the procedure, while the other half will receive standard care. The researchers want to see if surgery can reduce hospitalizations, improve heart function, and help control irregular heartbeat over two years.
Extra body weight puts strain on the heart and can make both heart failure and irregular heartbeat worse. Doctors want to know whether weight loss surgery—combined with careful medical support—might be more effective than current standard treatments alone at improving these conditions and keeping patients healthier.

If you are randomly assigned to the surgery group, you will undergo weight loss surgery and receive intensive medical support before and after the procedure, including dietary counseling and lifestyle guidance. If you are in the standard care group, you will continue your usual heart failure and irregular heartbeat treatments. Both groups will be monitored over two years with heart imaging, questionnaires about your symptoms, and follow-up visits to track whether the surgery improves your heart function, reduces hospitalizations, and helps control your irregular heartbeat.
