Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two ablation techniques to treat patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (irregular and often very rapid heart rhythm). An ablation is a procedure during which some scars are made on the inside of the heart to break up the electrical signals that cause the irregular heartbeat. In this trial researchers will compare a new technique, which uses tiny electric shocks to make the scars, to the standard technique, which uses heat. The main question the trial aims to answer is: • Does the new technique work as well as the standard technique to prevent the irregular heartbeat from returning within one year of the procedure? Participants will: - Undergo an ablation with either the new or the standard technique - Visit the hospital 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the procedure for a check-up - Wear a device to register their heart rhythm for 24 hours before the 3 month visit and for 72 hours before the 6, 9 and 12 month visit - Record their heart rhythm at home every week - Complete a questionnaire 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the procedure
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of accelerated pacing (pacemaker lower rate programmed to 80bpm) compared to pacing at the standard programmed lower rate of 60bpm in symptomatic atrial fibrillation patients undergoing pace-and-ablate strategy with LBBAP. The main question it aims to answer is: - To determine the effect of accelerated pacing on health-related quality of life compared to the current standard of care. Secondary questions it aims to answer are: - To study the acute hemodynamic effect of different (accelerated) pacing rates on pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, cardiac output and arterial blood pressure among atrial fibrillation patients undergoing pace-and-ablate strategy. - To study the long-term effects (at 6 months) of accelerated pacing compared to the current standard of care among atrial fibrillation patients undergoing pace-and-ablate strategy on: - NT pro BNP levels - device detected atrial fibrillation burden and daily activity - echocardiographic measurements (LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; LVEDD, left ventricular end- diastolic diameter; LVESD, left ventricular end-systolic diameter; LAVI left atrial volume index; diastolic parameters; strain
FLOW EVAL-AF is a prospective, observational, single center pilot trial. The FLOW EVAL-AF trial is designed to identify driver sources in patients with persistent or longstanding persistent AF using EGF mapping and describe the activation patterns observed from concomitant high density mapping of those regions.
The goal of this clinical trial is to treatment of patients with persistent atrial fibrillation with PFA/RFA. 10 patients will be treated by PFA/RFA catheter or PFA catheter only. Participants will followed 1、3 month after catheter ablation
This clinical investigation is intended to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the Volt™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) Catheter Sensor Enabled™, the Volt™ PFA Generator, Agilis™ NxT Steerable Introducer Dual-Reach™, and EnSite™ X EP System EnSite™ Pulsed Field Ablation Module (for simplicity of reference this device collection will hereafter be referred to as the Volt™ PFA system) for the treatment of symptomatic, recurrent, drug-refractory paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation.
The purpose of this study is to gather data regarding the utilization of the FARAVIEW™ feature of the RHYTHMIA HDx Mapping System when used in conjunction with the FARAWAVE NAV Pulsed Field Ablation catheter in subjects undergoing catheter-based endocardial mapping and catheter-based ablation treatment of Atrial Fibrillation.
A randomised controlled clinical trial to assess efficacy of convergent ablation with the LARIAT procedure, as compared to standard endocardial catheter ablation in patients with long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (AF).
Comparison of pulmonary vein and left atrial posterior wall isolation durability and clinical outcome between radiofrequency and pulse field ablation in patients with persistent and longstanding persistent atrial fibrillation.
An effective therapy of persistent atrial fibrillation beyond pulmonary vein isolation remains unsatisfactory. Targeting endocardial low-voltage areas represents an approach of substrate modification. This prospective, randomized study investigated the efficacy of ablation of low-voltage areas versus PVI and additional linear ablations in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation in terms of single-procedure arrhythmia-free outcome and safety.
The purpose of this study is to establish the safety and effectiveness of pulsed field ablation as a first-line ablation treatment for subjects with persistent atrial fibrillation as compared to subjects who received an initial treatment with anti-arrhythmic drugs.
