About this study

Official title: Multi-center, Controlled Trial to Compare the Feasibility, Safety and Efficacy of Zero-fluoroscopic Approach With Fluoroscopic Approach for the Ablation of Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia

This study is aimed to compare the feasibility, safety and efficacy of a zero-fluoroscopic approach using Ensite NavX with conventional fluoroscopic approach using Ensite NavX plus fluoroscopy for the ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.

Read the detailed description

Fluoroscopy is the imagine modality routinely used in catheter ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. As we all know,fluoroscopic radiation is harmful both to the patients and the operation staffs. Recently,three-dimensional navigation systems have been developed and implemented in electrophysiological procedures for guiding catheters inside the heart chambers. Among the three-dimensional navigation systems, Ensite NavX is a promising system used for zero-fluoroscopic approach for performing catheter ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. This study is aimed to compare the feasibility, safety and efficacy of a zero-fluoroscopic approach using Ensite NavX with conventional fluoroscopic approach using Ensite NavX plus fluoroscopy for the ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.

What is being measured

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

  1. Procedural success rate

    Procedural success for AVNRT was defined as the absence of inducible tachycardia either under basal condition or under isoproterenol stimulation. Procedural success for AVRT was defined as the non-inducibility of tachycardia, loss of pre-excitation (if manifest), loss of retrograde accessory pathway conduction and transient atrioventricular block induced by intravenous adenosine.

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Complications

    Complications were defined as pseudoaneurysm, arterialvenous fistula, pneumothorax, second- or third-degree atrioventricular block, cardiac tamponade, or other serious complications requiring intervention.

    Measured: one year

  2. Immediate success rate

    Procedural success for AVNRT was defined as the absence of inducible tachycardia either under basal condition or under isoproterenol stimulation. Procedural success for AVRT was defined as the non-inducibility of tachycardia, loss of pre-excitation (if manifest), loss of retrograde accessory pathway conduction and transient atrioventricular block induced by intravenous adenosine.

    Measured: one day

  3. Recurrence Rate

    1. An ECG and electrophysiology study would be performed to rule out recurrence when the patients had suspicious symptoms or signs.

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Total procedure time

    Procedure time (in minutes) was defined as the interval from the beginning of local anesthesia to extraction of all femoral venous sheaths at the end of the procedure. Total ablation time was calculated in seconds but time for tentative ablation was not taken into account.

    Measured: one day

  5. Fluoroscopy time

    1. Fluoroscopy time (in minutes) was defined as thetotal duration of exposure during the procedure.

    Measured: one day
