Summary

This is a prospective, multicentre, randomized single blind, parallel group study to be conducted in the UK (2 sites).Approximately 48 patients will be recruited aiming for 40 eligible for randomization. The study is designed to compare the operator's best attempt at WACA completion with and without Rhythmia guidance

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Atrial Fibrillation Ablation

Procedure involving catheter ablation to produce pulmonary vein isolation. Pulmonary veins are isolated by assessing electrograms circumferentially around the PV using the Orion catheter.

DEVICE

Catheters used to isolate pulmonary veins

Catheters transiently inserted into body via femoral veins in order to produce pulmonary vein isolation. These catheters are the same in each arm and comprise the Orion catheter (Boston Scientific) and the Tacticath (St Jude) which are used to produce pulmonary vein isolation and which are approved for use in standard EP procedures by the relevant authorities (CE marked). It is merely the protocol by which they are used that iffers in the two arms.

PROCEDURE

Atrial Fibrillation Ablation with HD mapping to isolate PVs

Procedure involving catheter ablation to produce pulmonary vein isolation. Pulmonary veins are isolated by use of electroanatomical mapping with the Orion catheter around the sites ablation in order to target points of breakthrough.

DEVICE

Rhythmia HD mapping

Mapping activation patterns using the Rhythmia system in conjunction with the Orion catheter
