About this study

Official title: A Study Evaluating the User Experience With the FARAVIEW™ Technology of the RHYTHMIA HDx™ Mapping System When Used With the FARAWAVE NAV™ Pulsed Field Ablation Catheter in the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation

The purpose of this study is to gather data regarding the utilization of the FARAVIEW™ feature of the RHYTHMIA HDx Mapping System when used in conjunction with the FARAWAVE NAV Pulsed Field Ablation catheter in subjects undergoing catheter-based endocardial mapping and catheter-based ablation treatment of Atrial Fibrillation.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to obtain First-in-Human (FIH) experience with the FARAVIEW™ technology of the RHYTHMIA HDx™ Mapping System when it is used to visualize and track the FARAWAVE NAV™ Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) catheter in the treatment of Atrial Fibrillation (AF). The study will collect FIH data on user experience and workflow using the FARAVIEW technology to visualize and track the FARAWAVE NAV PFA catheter (part of the FARAPULSE™ Pulsed Field Ablation System). Subjects with Paroxysmal and Persistent Atrial Fibrillation will be included in this study.

NAVIGATE PF Phase 2 has the same objective of the NAVIGATE PF study and incorporates a Day 60 remapping procedure and Day 90 safety follow-up. This procedure has the additional objective to assess durability of isolation and to compare electro-anatomical maps information between Index procedure and Day 60 remapping. One clinical site in Europe that participated in NAVIGATE PF and enrolled under protocol ver A., will contribute enrollments in Phase 2 of the NAVIGATE PF study. Approximately 30 subjects will be enrolled in Phase 2 of the NAVIGATE PF study.

What participants receive

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

  • Ablation TreatmentDevice

    For subjects with paroxysmal AF, Pulmonary Vein Isolation will be performed with the FARAWAVE NAV catheter. For subjects with persistent AF, left atrial posterior wall isolation (PWI) may also be performed at the discretion of the investigator, with the FARAWAVE NAV PFA catheter.

For patients with persistent AF, left atrial posterior wall isolation (PWI) may also be performed in addition to PVI at the discretion of the investigator
Receives: Device: Ablation Treatment

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of subjects with PVI success

    PVI success is defined as the proportion of veins isolated vs reconnected at the end of the procedure as assessed by a site's standard of care method for testing vein isolation

    Measured: At the end of the ablation procedure

  2. Number of subjects with PWI success

    PWI success is defined as the isolation of the left atrial PW at the end of the procedure as assessed by a site's standard of care method for testing

    Measured: At the end of the ablation procedure

  3. Physician feedback on FARAVIEW technology of the RHYTHMIA mapping system by means of a questionnaire

    Physician feedback on the FARAVIEW technology of the RHYTHMIA mapping system will be collected by means of a questionnaire.

    Measured: At the end of the ablation procedure

  4. umber of subjects presenting with PV or PW reconnections site's standard of care method. Procedural complications: device and/or procedure-related AEs.

    Device and/or procedure-related AEs will be collected to evaluate the procedural complications rate.

    Measured: At the end of the ablation procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ablation Treatment in people with Atrial Fibrillation and Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation, run by Boston Scientific Corporation at 3 sites in 3 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 6 inclusion and 40 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 17 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Czechia, Ireland, Spain. 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?

Number of subjects with PVI success (time frame: At the end of the ablation procedure). 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 NCT06175234, which also lists 2 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 17 Sep 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
