Summary

The primary objective of CONVERGE PAS is to evaluate clinical outcomes (peri-procedural and long-term) in a cohort of patients treated during commercial use of the EPi-Sense® Guided Coagulation System or EPi-Sense ST™ Coagulation System to treat symptomatic long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) patients who are refractory or intolerant to at least one Class I and/or III AAD.

Conditions

  • Chronic Atrial Fibrillation

Interventions

DEVICE

Epicardial And Endocardial RF Ablation For The Treatment Of Symptomatic Long-standing Persistent AF

Epicardial linear lesions will be created endoscopically using the EPi-Sense®-Guided Coagulation System or EPi-Sense ST™ Coagulation System throughout the posterior left atrium and along the pericardial reflections from a trans-diaphragmatic or sub-xyphoid access without any chest incisions. Posterior and other linear lesions such as a roof lesion and mitral valve isthmus lesion will not be created during the endocardial component of the convergent procedure. This will be done endocardially using an irrigated endocardial ablation catheter. Once the study lesion pattern has been created by coagulating cardiac tissue using the EPi-Sense®-Guided Coagulation System or EPi-Sense ST™ Coagulation System and the endocardial ablation catheter, the pulmonary veins must be evaluated for entrance and/or exit block to confirm isolation. .
