Filter by:The purpose of this clinical study is to assess the safety and performance of the Vision-MR Ablation Catheter, the primary safety endpoint will measure the rate of serious adverse events related to the device or procedure; the primary performance endpoint will measure the acute success rate defined as the demonstration of bidirectional cavo-tricuspid isthmus block after radiofrequency application in the cavo-tricuspid isthmus; the secondary performance endpoint will measure the chronic success rate defined as the freedom of recurrence of type 1 atrial flutter at three months post-ablation procedure. The study will be a single center study conducted at the Leipzig University Hospital Heart Center in Germany. The study population will consist of adult patients requiring ablation for type I atrial flutter. This is the follow-up study to NCT02699034.
Consecutive patients with atrial fibrillation will be admitted to the hospital for electrical cardioversion. Ankle brachial index will be measured three times with oscillometric method and three times with doppler method. Two study sessions will be performed: the first before and the second after electrical cardioversion. The first session will be ended before anesthesia. The second session will be started before a conscious patient will be transported from intensive care unit to general ward. All the measurements will be taken in the intensive care unit at an ambient temperature of 21° C, after patients will give their written informed consent to participate in the study. All patients will be awake, fasting and in the supine position. ABI will be measured according to the guidelines issued by AHA. Systolic blood pressure will be measured using a Doppler device (Echo Sounder ES-101EX, Hadeco, Japan) and a validated and calibrated aneroid sphygmomanometer (Minimus II, Rister, Germany). Measurement of ABI using oscillometric method will be performed using WatchBP Office ABI system (Microlife WatchBP AG, Widnau, Switzerland). The appropriate cuff size will be used with the width of the cuff being at least 40% of the limb circumference. The arm with higher systolic blood pressure will be used to calculate the ABI. Higher systolic blood pressure measured on the posterior tibial or dorsalis pedis artery will be used to calculate the ABI. During both study sessions ABI measurements will be repeated 3 times with each method in the reverse order of the preceding measurement e.g., in the case of the initial counterclockwise sequence: right arm, right popliteal, right dorsalis pedis, left popliteal, left dorsalis pedis, left arm, right arm, the clockwise sequence will be used, starting and ending with the left arm. The same sequence of limb pressure measurements will be used used during the study. A sample size calculation was based on the preliminary observations made by the study team. It was calculated that the study sample size of 79 subjects would be needed to detect a difference of 0.1 in the ABI measured in sinus rhythm and during atrial fibrillation, with a two-tailed α of 0.05 and a (1-β) of 0.90. The investigators initial estimate of sample size of 115 patients incorporated an assumption of dropout due to non-effective electrical cardioversion, patient decision to quit study or failure to obtain adequate ABI. The measurements will be repeated three times with each method and for the each method the mean will be used for the calculations. Investigator - study nurse, trained at the vascular department, will perform all ABI measurements.
A clinical randomized trial to evaluate if CF guided Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA) to a specific of LSI in atrial flutter i superior to standard RFA.
The objective of the study is to demonstrate the safety and feasibility of the Adagio Cryoablation System is subjects with Paroxysmal (PAF), Persistent (PsAF) and Long-Standing Persistent Atrial Fibrillation.
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a standard treatment option for cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) dependent atrial flutter. We plan to perform a randomized prospective trial comparing the efficacy of contact force (CF) guided CTI ablation against catheter ablation with the operator blinded to contact force parameters.
- Prospective Atrial Flutter Ablation Registry investigating IntellaTip Mifi XP 8 mm technology and MVG isthmus ablation approach - Design: National, multi-centre, prospective observational registry documenting right atrial isthmus ablation - Observational treatment: Combination of MVG ablation strategy and the IntellaTip Mifi XP 8 mm sensor technology - Duration: Patients will be followed for 6 months post-ablation
The aim of the SEARCH-AF trial is to evaluate a novel diagnostic tool for detecting post-operative atrial fibrillation or flutter (POAF/AFL) in cardiac surgical subjects during the early, sub-acute post-operative period. The population includes cardiac surgical subjects who have either developed or are at risk for developing new onset POAF/AFL and who are at risk for stroke, as determined by their CHA2DS2-VASC (congestive heart failure, hypertension, age ≥75 years (2 points), diabetes mellitus, previous stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA) (2 points), vascular disease, age 65-74 years, sex class (female)) score. These subjects must not have had a history of AF/AFL before cardiac surgery. The intervention group will undergo up to 30 days of continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring with an adhesive, patch-based monitor (Medtronic SEEQ™ mobile cardiac telemetry system or the CardioSTAT (Icentia Inc.) cardiac rhythm monitoring device). The control group will receive usual care, which does not involve planned cardiac rhythm testing within the first 30 days after study randomization. The primary outcome is documentation of sustained atrial fibrillation or flutter within the first 30 days after randomization. In addition, subjects in both groups will undergo 14 days of continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring with the Medtronic SEEQ™ mobile cardiac telemetry system or the CardioSTAT (Icentia Inc.) cardiac rhythm monitoring device at 6±1 months after their index cardiac surgery.
Demonstrate the safety, feasibility and usability of the EPD D700 system, for the first time in humans, in subjects undergoing ablation for the treatment of atrial flutter. Prospective, single-center, non-randomized, open label, single arm study. Ten consented subjects who are scheduled to undergo ablation due to atrial flutter. All subjects will undergo baseline assessment; intervention (standard fluoroscopy guided RF ablation procedure) and post procedure follow up. All subjects will have a follow up visit within 24 hours post procedure.
Atrial fibrillation (AF), a condition where the top chambers of the heart beat irregularly, is a major health problem. The long-term goal of this project is to use a personal, mobile heart monitor to help patients better recognize recurrent AF and improve patients' ability to better manage their condition. A total of 300 patients with a history of AF will be included in the study, with 150 patients receiving an iPhone with the mobile monitoring device and educational text messaging and the remaining 150 patients continuing with their regular medical care. Each patient will be included in the intervention period for 6 months. The rate of recurrent AF and treatments meant to manage AF and other heart conditions will be determined for both groups. Patients in both groups will complete a series of questionnaires at the start and end of the 6 month study period to look at differences in quality of life and knowledge of AF.
