Recruiting NA Atrial Fibrillation (AF)

New treatment option for Atrial Fibrillation (AF)

Official title Artificial Intelligence Mapping and Ablation of Non-Pulmonary Vein Electrical Drivers of AF Study

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06935591

What this study is testing

What it's testing
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the use of the Vektor Computational ECG Mapping System (vMap®) with pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), to using PVI alone, to treat Atrial Fibrillation (AF) in adults. Participants will have a 50/50 or 1 out of 2 chance of being placed in the treatment or control arm.

Who can take part

Ages 22 and older

You may be able to join if

  • people diagnosed with persistent (not longstanding) AF or recurrent AF, as defined for this study.
  • Subject has a recent 12-lead electrogram data of AF (including baseline, pacing and clinical arrhythmia) recorded on the electrogram recording system...
  • The following data elements can be abstracted from the patient medical records or confirmed and documented prior to the scheduled procedure (to be...
  • Atrial fibrillation type
  • Atrial characteristics: geometry (normal, left and/or right atrial enlargement), Utah classification, prior ablation modality (e.g., radiofrequency...

You likely can't join if

  • people who have a known or suspected medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may put the subject at risk for participation in...
  • people who are pregnant as confirmed by the institution's standard pre-surgery practice.
  • Subject has had prior PVI and all four pulmonary veins are confirmed to be isolated based on voltage readings during the study index procedure.

  • Subject is ≥ 22 years of age at time of enrollment/consent.
  • Subject is indicated to undergo an ablation procedure at the medical discretion of the Investigator.
  • Subject is able and willing to comply with the protocol requirements, has been informed of the nature of the study,
What rules you out
  • people with arrhythmias other than persistent or recurring AF as defined for this study, including long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (persistent AF lasting ≥ 1 year from diagnosis).
  • Inability to obtain ECG prior to or during the clinical ablation procedure; or unacceptable ECG data quality such as low ECG signal-to-noise ratio or lack of ECG data in one or more leads.
  • people who are participating in another clinical investigation with an investigational drug or device at the time of enrollment or planned participation at any time during this clinical investigation.
  • people who have a known or suspected medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may put the subject at risk for participation in this clinical investigation.
  • people who are pregnant as confirmed by the institution's standard pre-surgery practice.
