Trial Outcomes & Findings for NAVISTAR® THERMOCOOL® Catheter Post Approval Registry (NCT NCT00964392)

NCT ID: NCT00964392

Last Updated: 2025-02-04

Results Overview

The primary adverse events (AE) include Death, Myocardial infarction (MI), Pulmonary vein (PV) stenosis, Diaphragmatic paralysis, Atrio-esophageal fistula, Transient ischemic attack (TIA), Stroke/Cerebrovascular accident (CVA), Thromboembolism, Pericarditis, Cardiac tamponade, Pericardial effusion, Pneumothorax, Atrial perforation, Vascular access complications, Pulmonary edema, Hospitalization (including initial and prolonged, excluding those hospitalizations solely due to pre-existing arrhythmia recurrence), Heart block. Pulmonary vein stenosis (defined as ≥70% diameter reduction) and atrio-esophageal fistula occurring more than 7 days post-procedure shall be deemed a Primary AE. The primary endpoint for the Post-Approval Registry is a comparison of the 7-day primary AE rate against a performance criterion of 16 %. The 16% performance criterion is based on literature data and discussion with the FDA per IDE G030236.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Seven days post ablation procedure

Population: Safety population, which is defined as those subjects who underwent study catheter insertion. However subject LUC-030, who experienced one primary AE, was excluded from this analysis since the subject discontinued prior to RF ablation.

The primary adverse events (AE) include Death, Myocardial infarction (MI), Pulmonary vein (PV) stenosis, Diaphragmatic paralysis, Atrio-esophageal fistula, Transient ischemic attack (TIA), Stroke/Cerebrovascular accident (CVA), Thromboembolism, Pericarditis, Cardiac tamponade, Pericardial effusion, Pneumothorax, Atrial perforation, Vascular access complications, Pulmonary edema, Hospitalization (including initial and prolonged, excluding those hospitalizations solely due to pre-existing arrhythmia recurrence), Heart block. Pulmonary vein stenosis (defined as ≥70% diameter reduction) and atrio-esophageal fistula occurring more than 7 days post-procedure shall be deemed a Primary AE. The primary endpoint for the Post-Approval Registry is a comparison of the 7-day primary AE rate against a performance criterion of 16 %. The 16% performance criterion is based on literature data and discussion with the FDA per IDE G030236.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: First study day to 5 year post-ablation

Population: Safety population, which is defined as those subjects who underwent study catheter insertion. However subject LUC-030, who experienced one SAE, was excluded from this analysis since the subject discontinued prior to RF ablation.

The occurrence of serious adverse events (SAE) was used to provide the prospective long-term safety data. The SAEs are summarized by the following time periods: 0 to 30 days post-ablation, 31 days to 365 post-ablation, 366 to 730 days post-ablation, and more than 730 days post-ablation. One subject might have experienced SAEs in more than one time periods. This report covers the SAEs occurred from September 29, 2009 (first patient enrolled) to June 23, 2015 (data download date for this report).

More-experienced Physicians
n=125 participants at risk
Subjects were enrolled into sites where the primary investigators were more-experienced physicians (MEP). Those physicians were prospectively classified into the MEP group if he or she had performed greater than 50 atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation procedures per year.
