Clinical Trial Summary

This clinical investigation utilizes the Constellation Full Contact Mapping catheter in the left and right atria to explore atrial signal characteristics that can guide atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter ablation procedures more effectively.


Clinical Trial Description

Atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL) are the most common cardiac arrhythmias in adults, and account for a substantial portion of patient morbidity and healthcare expenditures. Great effort has been put forth to discover effective treatments for AF/FL. Promising results of catheter ablation suggest that AF/FL may be eliminated in a majority of patients. For example, data from numerous laboratories shows that up to 85 percent of patients with the paroxysmal form of AF may be free of recurrences and off anti-arrhythmic drugs at one year follow-up. ;
