Linear Ablation Versus Focal Ablation of Complex Fractionated Atrial Electrograms in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

NCT01088126 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2018-03-20

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The end point of catheter ablation at complex fractionated atrial electrograms (CFAE) was not established yet. Furthermore, incomplete CFAE ablation may have a potential to develop atrial tachyarrhythmias (AT). The investigators hypothesized that linear ablation extending the clusters of CFAE would be a better strategy than focal ablation at the individual CFAE sites.
