About this study

Official title: Cryo Global Registry, a Part of the Medtronic Cardiac Ablation Post-Market Study Platform

Cryo Global Registry a prospective, global, multi-center, observational Post-Market Registry

Read the detailed description

The Cryo Global Registry is a prospective, global, multi-center, observational post-market registry (PMR). The purpose of this study is to evaluate and describe clinical performance and safety data in a broad patient population treated with a commercially available Arctic Front™ Family of Cardiac Cryoablation Catheters (hereafter referred to as "Arctic Front™ Cardiac Cryoablation Catheter System"). The cryoballoon ablation(CBA) procedure will be performed according to routine hospital practice. The study is expected to have a 24 month enrollment period. The follow up period is intended to align with standard practice and subjects will be followed for a minimum of 12 months post-procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation, run by Medtronic Cardiac Ablation Solutions at 163 sites in 38 countries.

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 2 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 30 Jul 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 163 sites in Japan, Germany, United States, China, India and 33 more countries. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Freedom from Atrial Fibrillation (AF) Recurrence at 12 Months (time frame: 12 Months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02752737, which also lists 11 linked publications.

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 30 Jul 2025.
