Liner Ablation Using Contact-force in Atrial Fibrillation

NCT03091972 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 200

Last updated 2017-03-27

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Linear ablation is frequently used in the procedure for persistent atrial fibrillation. However, it has a limitation because of technical difficulty. Incomplete block is common and an important cause of atrial tachycardia.

The association between contact force values and successful linear block has not been revealed yet. We aim to the effectiveness and safety of linear ablation by using CF sensing catheter.

Conditions

  • Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Pulmonary vein isolation

A pulmonary vein isolation procedure will be performed using radiofrequency ablation with contact force monitoring.

PROCEDURE

Contact force assisted left atrial linear ablation

Left atrial linear ablation (Roof line and Anterior line) after pulmonary vein isolation during catheter ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation monitoring contact force.

PROCEDURE

left atrial linear ablation without contact force monitoring

Left atrial linear ablation (Roof line and Anterior line) after pulmonary vein isolation during catheter ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation without monitoring contact force.
