About this study

This study is a sub study of the Pure EP 2.0 trial. In a redo atrial fibrillation population, this study is designed to collect pulmonary vein signals pre and post ablation therapy, along with other non-pulmonary vein signals of interest during a redo ablation procedure. These signals are later evaluated for clinical relevance and impact on the procedure.

Read the detailed description

Cardiac electrophysiologists rely on the display of electrograms when performing EP studies and catheter ablations in patients with arrhythmias. To achieve effective outcomes without complications, it is vital that the recording system enables the recognition of clearly abnormal (scared myocardium) and normal electrical signals.

In a redo Atrial Fibrillation (AF) procedure, the patient had previously undergone an AF ablation procedure, but is still having AF episodes, which can be life threatening and have been shown to lead to strokes. Since the original AF procedure involved burning or freezing of myocardial tissue, this is now additional scar tissue and may cause more complex electrograms and intracardiac signals.

In this sub study, both the PURE EP™ system and the GE Cardiolab system will be running and recording signals during the entire procedure, with one of the systems displayed on the screen in the procedure room to guide the physician's decision-making. Even numbered subjects will be PURE EP™ guided and odd numbered subjected will be GE CardioLab guided. All other aspects of the procedure will proceed per standard of care. The study will be collect pulmonary vein signals pre and post ablation therapy, along with other non-pulmonary vein signals of interest during a redo ablation procedure.

After the physician has completed ablation treatment, matching signals of interest will be extracted from both the PURE EP™ system and the GE Cardiolab recording system as described in the main study. At a later date, a blinded electrophysiologist reviewer will evaluate the signals from both systems with a focus on tissue viability signals and the impact on the procedure. The survey results will then be compared to see the differences in clinical procedure decision-making based on the signal samples.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the clinical procedure impact of PURE-EP signals of interest vs. a standard recording system in a Redo AF population

    The signals of interest will undergo a homogenization process to remove all identifiers of the system used. At a later time, a blinded electrophysiologist reviewer will evaluate the signals for clinical relevance and procedural impact from both systems using the same Blinded Signal Assessment Form. The Blinded Assessment Form results will be compared to both each other and what was done at the procedure.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation Recurrent, run by BioSig Technologies, Inc. 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 9 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 11 Feb 2022. 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?

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?

To assess the clinical procedure impact of PURE-EP signals of interest vs. a standard recording system in a Redo AF population (time frame: 6 months). 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 11 Feb 2022.
