Summary

We propose a pilot study to assess safety and benefit of renal artery ablation at the time of planned atrial fibrillation ablation.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

AF ablation with Renal Denervation

Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is performed as per operator preference by previously described techniques. Both mapping and ablation are performed under general anesthesia. The use of standard electrophysiology ablation catheter to perform renal artery ablation in hypertensive patients has been previously described. UP to 2 minutes of RF energy (10W with irrigation flow of 17 ml/min) are delivered at each location and up to 6 lesions for each artery on the longitudinal and rotational axis. Renal denervation is performed on both vascular pedicles after clinical AF ablation in patients assigned to the intervention arm.

PROCEDURE

AF ablation alone

Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is performed as per operator preference by previously described techniques.
