Overview
This is a prospective, descriptive study. Safety endpoints will not be assessed. All eligible patients that have a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and an indication to undergo Micra AV2 device placement as per standard of care (SOC) across the participating sites within the Northwell Health System can be included in this analysis. Micra AV2 placement indications will be at the discretion of the treating electrophysiologist, but are expected to be predominantly atrioventricular block. Periodic device interrogations will be reviewed for the presence of effective atrial tracking during sinus rhythm . The presence of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and the degree to which atrial activity and A4 amplitude trend changes will be assessed using a designated Medtronic Research Holter monitor that detects Micra AV2 signals at any point in the study during a episodes of sinus rhythm and atrial fibrillation. Patients who have atrial fibrillation during index hospitalization will undergo placement of the Medtronic Holter monitor as part of the standard of care index hospitalization. Eligible outpatients will undergo placement of the Medtronic Research Holter Monitor in the office.
