About this study

Official title: Compared With 2 Different Ablation Strategies Clinical Outcome for Treating Patients With Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation,Prospective Randomised Study

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most serious atrial electrical activity disorders, is also one of the common tachyarrhythmias.Circumferential pulmonary Vein Isolation (CPVI) is considered to be the cornerstone of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation ablation, but recently reported in the literature that pure CPVI treatment for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation the 5-year success rate as low as 46.6%, and the incidence of atrial reentry tachycardia is also high in the follow-up period. Therefore it is necessary for us to explore whether the success rate of CPVI combined with Leftatrium Roofline Ablation (CPVI + LARA) for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is higher than the pure CPVI.

Read the detailed description

Atrial fibrillation (AF) refers to the orderly loss of atrial electrical activity, replaced by rapid and disorderly atrial fibrillation wave, is the most acute atrial electrical activity disorders, is also one of the common tachyarrhythmias. So far, the mechanism of atrial fibrillation has not yet been completely clarified. At present, there are various mechanisms to participate in the occurrence and maintenance of atrial fibrillation, which mainly involves two aspects. One is the triggering factor of atrial fibrillation, and the other is the occurrence and maintenance of atrial fibrillation (substrate). Trigger factors are varied, including sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation, bradycardia, atrial premature beats or tachycardia, atrioventricular bypass and acute atrial pull, etc, which pulmonary vein electrical activity triggered the most common, but also is an most important theoretical Basis for the Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation . Substrate is a necessary condition for the onset and maintenance of atrial fibrillation. Electrical remodeling and structural remodeling are by shortening the atrial effective refractory period. Atrial dilatation and atrial fibrosis play a major role in the formation of atrial fibrillation reentry.Circumferential pulmonary Vein Isolation (CPVI) is considered to be the cornerstone of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation ablation, but recently reported in the literature that pure CPVI treatment for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation the 5-year success rate as low as 46.6%, and the incidence of atrial reentry tachycardia is also high in the follow-up period. Therefore it is necessary for us to explore whether the success rate of CPVI combined with Leftatrium Roofline Ablation (CPVI + LARA) for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is higher than the pure CPVI.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CPVI GroupProcedure or surgery

    Also called Pure Circumferential pulmonary vein isolation

    CPVI Group:The ablation strategy of Circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI)will be operated on 60 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

  • CPVI+LARA GroupProcedure or surgery

    Also called Circumferential pulmonary vein isolation combine with Left atrium roofline ablation

    CPVI+LARA Group: The ablation strategy of Circumferential pulmonary vein isolation combine with Left atrium roofline ablation(CPVI+LARA) will be operated on 60 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maintenance time of sinus rhythm

    To evaluate the effectiveness of the ablation operation, we will observe how long will these patients keep sinus rhythm after operation.

    Measured: The two groups will be assessed from 3 months later operation until the recurrence of atrial fibrillation or up to 36 months after operation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The size of the left atrium

    The size of the left atrium measured by Transthoracic echocardiography

    Measured: Patients's size of the left atrium will be assessed from 3 months later operation until the recurrence of atrial fibrillation or up to 36 months after operation

  2. The Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

    The Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction measured by Transthoracic echocardiography maybe improve when heart rhytum becom sinus rhytum after ablation operation.

    Measured: Patients's LV ejection fraction will be assessed from 3 months later operation until the recurrence of atrial fibrillation or up to 36 months after operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CPVI Group and CPVI+LARA Group in people with Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation, run by Zhujiang Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jan 2019. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Liqing Wang, Doctor (+86-02062783391, wliqing2014@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maintenance time of sinus rhythm (time frame: The two groups will be assessed from 3 months later operation until the recurrence of atrial fibrillation or up to 36 months after operation). 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 15 Jan 2019.
