Trial Outcomes & Findings for High-Density (HD) Wave Mapping in Subjects With Atrial Fibrillation as a Predictor of Recurrence After a Single Ablation Procedure Using a PVI-Only Strategy (NCT NCT03882021)

NCT ID: NCT03882021

Last Updated: 2024-09-19

Results Overview

Defined as freedom from atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter and atrial tachycardia after removal from the antiarrhythmic drug therapy as assesses from the end of the 3-month blanking period to 12 months following a single ablation procedure. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis will be conducted to analyze time-to-event variables.

Participant Flow

A patient was considered enrolled in the clinical investigation from the moment all of the following enrollment criteria were met: the patient provided written informed consent, patient was confirmed to meet all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria and the mapping catheter was inserted into the subject's vasculature. If the procedure was cancelled or aborted after consent but prior to the mapping catheter insertion, the subject was withdrawn prior to enrollment.
