About this study

Official title: Atrial Signal Analysis Using a Multipolar Catheter in Patients Undergoing Atrial Fibrillation and Flutter Ablations

This clinical investigation utilizes the Constellation Full Contact Mapping catheter in the left and right atria to explore atrial signal characteristics that can guide atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter ablation procedures more effectively.

Read the detailed description

Atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL) are the most common cardiac arrhythmias in adults, and account for a substantial portion of patient morbidity and healthcare expenditures. Great effort has been put forth to discover effective treatments for AF/FL. Promising results of catheter ablation suggest that AF/FL may be eliminated in a majority of patients. For example, data from numerous laboratories shows that up to 85 percent of patients with the paroxysmal form of AF may be free of recurrences and off anti-arrhythmic drugs at one year follow-up.

Basket CatheterExperimentalThe Constellation Full Contact Mapping Catheter (multipolar catheter) to be utilized for collection of atrial electrograms.
Receives: Device: Constellation Full Contact Mapping Catheter

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Atrial Fibrillation Dominant Frequency

    Electrogram signal analysis will be performed to assess the dominant frequency of the atrial fibrillation electrograms collected by this catheter. These values will be correlated to patient outcomes.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Constellation Full Contact Mapping Catheter in people with Atrial Fibrillation or Atrial Flutter, run by Angelo Biviano at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Mar 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Atrial Fibrillation Dominant Frequency (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Mar 2016.
