Trial summary

Cather ablation of non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is less effective compared to paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Therefore, new techniques have been developed, such as high-density mapping to determine areas of focal and rotational activities. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Investigation and Analysis of Atria of Patients With Non-paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Using High-desnity Mapping and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Cather ablation of non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is less effective compared to paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Therefore, new techniques have been developed, such as high-density mapping to determine areas of focal and rotational activities. The aim is to assess the clinical efficacy of ablation focal and rotational activities, and to assess the relation between the areas of focal and rotational activities with fibrosis of both atria assessed using magnetic resonance.

Read the detailed description

Pateints with non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation will be enrolled. Before the procedure, cardiac magnetic resonance will be done to determine the extent and location of atrial fibrosis of both atria using dedicated software. The procedure itself will be done standardly, in alangosedation, from both femoral veins, using 10-pole catheter in the coronary sinus, intracardiac echocardiography, and two transseptal punctures by means of SL1 sheaths. Octarey mapping catheter (Biosense Webster, USA) wil be inserted in the left atrium, and during ongoing atrial fibrillation, a maping of left atrium will be done to locate the areas of focal and rotational activities. Afterthat, using Smart Touch ablation catheter (Biosense Webster, USA), pulmonary vein isolation will be done. When PVI is achieved, all areas of focal and rotational activities determined by high-density mapping will be performed. If sinus rhythm is achieved, the procedure is finished. If atrial fibrilaltion is organized to regular atrial, this regular tachacardia is mapped, ablated and the procedure is finished. If atrial fibrilaltion continues, mapping of the righ atrium using the same technique is done followed by catheter ablation of areas of focal and rotational activities. If atrial fibrillation is still present after all these ablation, electrical cardioversion will be done.

Patients will be discharged on following day. 5-day Holter recording will be done in 3, 6, and 12 months during standard out-patient controls.

The aim is to compare the findings of high-density mapping with findings on atrial MRI (relation between fibrosis on MRI and locations of rotational and focal activities). Furher aim is to assess the efficaccy of this kidn of ablation, i.e. the sinus rhythm maintenance in 3,6, and 12 months.

What participants receive

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

  • High-density mappingDevice

    Patients will undergo magnetic resonance imaging of both atria, and interventional high-density mapping of both atria.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sinus rhythm maintenance

    The freedom from atrial fibrillation

    Measured: 1 year

  2. MRI and high-density relation

    The relation between areas of location and rotational activities with atrial fibrosis location

    Measured: 3 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation, run by Charles University, Czech Republic at 1 site in Czechia.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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 Feb 2023. 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 Czechia. 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 Pavel Osmancik (+420721544447, pavel.osmancik@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sinus rhythm maintenance (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Feb 2023.
