Study Summary
This trial showed that a new technique for measuring lesion effectiveness during ablation procedures led to shorter procedures, less radiation exposure, and better outcomes.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults (18+) who are undergoing their first pulmonary vein isolation procedure to treat new-onset Atrial Fibrillation. It's not open to those who can't consent or don't have this specific type of heart rhythm disorder.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a technique using Unipolar Polarity Switch on the left and right sides during the procedure, aiming to improve outcomes by assessing lesion effectiveness more accurately, which may reduce time and radiation exposure.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed, procedures involving pulmonary vein isolation can include risks such as bleeding, infection at the catheter site, damage to blood vessels or heart structures, arrhythmias, or reactions from anesthesia.
