Filter by:A prospective, multi-center study with the CathVision Cube® system and the PVI Analyzer software in radiofrequency (RF), cryo-balloon (CB), and Pulse Field Ablation (PFA) procedures.
The purpose of this study is to assess the performance and safety for the use of the OPTRELL Catheter for intracardiac mapping in the atria and ventricles.
Sympathetic tone is important in cardiac arrhythmogenesis. The simultaneous recording of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) and electrocardiogram (ECG) was obtained by invasive method. The purpose of this protocol is to further develop this recording method to turn it into a new non-invasive tool for arrhythmia prediction and detection. This method may also be useful in validating the results of surgical procedures aimed at sympathetic denervation
This clinical trial is designed to compare two management strategies for the treatment of asymptomatic/subclinical atrial fibrillation after ablation based on data from the Biotronik ICM (BioMonitor3® or future generation of Biotronik ICM).
In this multi centre prospective study authors will evaluate atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence at 360 days follow-up and calcium handling in patients treated by epicardial thoracoscopic ablation for persistent AF. Indeed, responders patients to epicardial ablation will experience sinus rhythm restoration after the treatment, and will be in sinus rhythm until follow-up end. However, from October 2014 to June 2016, 27 consecutive patients with persistent AF will be identified and screened for participation in this prospective, multicenter trial at Catholic University of Sacred Heart, Campobasso, at University Study of Molise, Campobasso, at Vecchio Pellegrini Hospital, Naples and at University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli", Naples, Italy. All patients will receive an epicardial thoracoscopic pulmonary vein isolation. Before interventions, baseline laboratory studies, B type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) and serum Sarcoplasmic Endoplasmic Reticulum Calcium ATPase (SERCA) will be evaluated. These markers will be re-evaluated at 12th month of follow-up. Therefore, study hypothesis will be that successful epicardial ablation might reduce, in responders patients, the SERCA expression. Parallely, a lower serum expression of SERCA in patients with persistent AF might potentially identify a response to an epicardial ablative approach, and an innovative target to improve the response to an epicardial ablative treatment.
PersAFOne: Feasibility Study of the FARAPULSE™ Endocardial Ablation System in the Treatment of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common heart rhythm disorders and it is associated with a variety of symptoms leading to a considerable deterioration in quality of life. The Mental-AF trial is intended to inquire if an app-based mental training can reduce the occurrence of symptomatic AF episodes within the blanking period, i.e. the first three months after catheter ablation for AF.
The aim of this study is to quantify and characterize the outcomes of radiofrequency (RF) ablation after, and the utility of, electroanatomical mapping with the market-released HD mapping catheters Inquiry™ AFocusII™ Double Loop and Advisor™ HD Grid, Sensor Enabled™ with the EnSite Cardiac Mapping System and the EnSite Automap module in subjects with AF in the real-world environment of the Asian population.
The main aim of the research is to investigate whether patients undergoing pulmonary vein isolation with cryoablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) will have lower rates of AF recurrence than those treated by DC cardioversion without an ablation procedure. The objectives of the Pilot Study are to validate the key study logistics with a view to optimising methods to be used in the main study.
The aim is to use the GRID to characterize the atrial substrate and develop a model for predicting recurrence rates after a single procedure using a PVI only approach and a contact catheter.
