Chloroquine for Patients With Symptomatic Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: A Prospective Pilot Study
The goal of this pilot study is to explore the efficacy of chloroquine in terminating persistent AF and assess its potential role as a pharmacological cardioversion agent for the management of AF.
Pulsed Field Ablation vs. Cryoballoon Ablation in Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This clinical study is being conducted to compare two different treatment methods for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), a common heart rhythm disorder. Atrial fibrillation occurs when the upper chambers of the heart (the atria) beat rapidly and irregularly. This can lead to symptoms like palpitations, shortness of breath, or fatigue, …
Comparison of Expandable and Fixed Size Cryoballoon for the Treatment of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two different, market approved, cryoballoon devices for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). The main aims of the study are: to compare the efficacy of two ablation devices (acute and 1 year success rates) to compare the procedural characteristics (procedure …
Thoracoscopic Surgical Versus Catheter Ablation Approaches for Primary Treatment of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Rationale: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a highly prevalent cardiac arrhythmia. AF is classified as paroxysmal or persistent AF, based on the duration and persistency of the arrhythmia. Despite state-of-the-art pharmacological therapies targeting the ventricular rate or aiming to restore sinus rhythm, many patients with persistent AF stay symptomatic. Catheter ablation, …
SCAR Burden of Left Atrium Guided cathEter Ablation sTrategy for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This is a multicenter, randomized controlled trial to compare the recurrence of 1-year atrial arrhythmia after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) between pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and PVI with additional left atrial (LA) substrate modification based on the left atrial low-voltage area (LA LVA) in patients with persistent AF …
Evaluation of PWI Assisted by Marshall Ethanolization in Ablation of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This is a prospective, randomized controlled, single-blind, multi-center clinical trial study aiming to investigate whether the strategy of posterior wall isolation (PWI) assisted by vein of Marshall ethanol infusion (VOMEI) could improve the success rate of persistent atrial fibrillation ablation.
Atrial Anomalies Predict Silent Atrial Fibrillation Detected by Implantable Cardiac Monitor in Cryptogenic Stroke
Cryptogenic stroke (CS) causes about 30% of admissions to a stroke unit. Silent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) is believed to be the underlying cause of a significant proportion of patients. The use of implantable cardiac monitors (ICM) early after the CS has demonstrated benefits in the diagnostic yield, but the …
Quantitative Superior Vena Cava Isolation in Addition to Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) has limited success. The superior vena cava (SVC) has been identified as one of the most common non-pulmonary vein triggers for PAF. It is estimated that SVC isolation (SVCI) could improve the clinical results for patients with PAF. However, results from …
Convergent Ablation Plus Left Atrial Appendage Isolation for the Treatment of Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
A randomised controlled clinical trial to assess efficacy of convergent ablation with the LARIAT procedure, as compared to standard endocardial catheter ablation in patients with long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (AF).
Safety and Performance of the Affera SpherePVI™ Multi-Ablation System to Treat Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
A prospective, single-arm, multi-center study to evaluate the safety, performance, and effectiveness of the Affera SpherePVI™ Multi-Ablation System for treating paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
