To obtain data for the Rhythmia™ Mapping System in conjunction with Boston Scientific Open-Irrigated (OI) Catheters for ablation of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAF) according to current international and local guidelines. Primary objective: To assess acute and long-term outcomes for the Rhythmia Mapping System in conjunction with Boston Scientific Open-Irrigated Ablation Catheters to treat de novo Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation. De Novo PAF is defined as subjects undergoing first ablation procedure for PAF with no prior left atrial ablation (RF, Cryo, Surgical).

This research has two main specific aims. First, a commercially-available stimulator will be utilized to assess the effect of low-level electromagnetic field (EMF) stimulation on atrial fibrillation (AF) inducibility in patients with paroxysmal AF presenting for catheter ablation as compared to sham stimulation. We hypothesize a reduction in AF inducibility in patients treated with EMF stimulation. Second, we aim to assess for the effect of low-level EMF on level of systemic inflammatory mediators. We hypothesize a reduction in the level of the inflammatory mediator tissue necrosis factor (TNF)-α in patients treated with EMF stimulation as compared to sham stimulation. The long-term objective of this research is to develop low-level EMF as a therapeutic alternative for patients with AF, and this research will help to determine the efficacy of low-level pulsed EMF in this regard.

This clinical investigation is intended to demonstrate the acute safety and effectiveness of ablation with the TactiCath™ Contact Force Ablation Catheter, Sensor Enabled™ (TactiCath SE) for the treatment of drug refractory recurrent symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). This clinical investigation will be conducted under an investigational device exemption (IDE) and is intended to support market approval of the TactiCath SE ablation catheter in the United States. One hundred fifty six (156) subjects will be enrolled at up to 35 investigational sites in the US, Europe, and Australia. This clinical investigation is sponsored by Abbott.
The purpose of the DIAMOND-AF study is to establish the safety and effectiveness of the DiamondTemp System for the treatment of drug refractory, recurrent, symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in patients.
The I-STOP-Afib study will test the comparative effectiveness of using N-of-1 trials vs. symptom surveillance alone to reduce Atrial Fibrillation (AF) episode frequency and severity and improve quality of life for AF patients. The study will involve randomizing almost 500 paroxysmal AF patients to either AF episode tracking versus engaging in testing the relationship between participant-selected triggers and AF episodes utilizing a mobile-app based N-of-1 study design. Both groups will complete a validated survey to assess AF severity, essentially a measure of quality of life while living with AF, before and after a 3 month testing period.
To provide data demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of the Arctic Front Advance™ Cardiac CryoAblation Catheter for the treatment of recurrent symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, without the requirement that the subjects be drug refractory.
There is a need to compare the efficacy of PVI versus PVI plus catheter ablation, which includes ablation of complex fractionated atrial electrograms (CFAE) and linear lesions in the same procedure. If it is found that the PVI alone is as effective as PVI plus catheter ablation of CFAE and linear lesions, it may reduce the need for catheter ablation.
The purpose of this study is to determine if additional ablation during the first procedure as the result of the ability to medically induce quiet atrial arrhythmias will improve clinical outcome in patients with atrial fibrillation thus decreasing the need for additional ablation procedures.
The purpose of this study is to determine the incidence of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) in ischemic stroke patients who have a presumed known stroke etiology other than atrial fibrillation.
This is a prospective randomized study to assess the safety and efficacy of FIRM (Focal Impulse and Rotor Modulation)-guided ablation for the treatment of symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF). The study hypothesis is that the efficacy of AF elimination at 1 year will be higher by ablating patient-specific AF-sustaining rotors and focal sources by Focal Impulse and Rotor Modulation (FIRM) compared to conventional ablation alone (wide-area PV isolation).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of BMS-919373 on atrial fibrillation (AF) through its effect on AF burden (AFB), or the percent of time in AF, in subjects with paroxysmal AF (pAF) when administered orally at a range of doses (2 mg once daily (QD), 5 mg QD, 12 mg QD following a 1-week period of loading doses of 3 mg QD, 8 mg QD and 20 mg QD, respectively) for a total of 4 weeks. It is hypothesized that treatment with BMS-919373 will reduce AF burden as compared to baseline relative to placebo.
This is a PI-initiated study that aims to evaluate the efficacy of two different methods of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) ablation. There are currently two strategies for PAF ablation that are routinely performed by electrophysiology clinicians: (1) circumferential pulmonary vein ablation (CPVA) and (2) segmental pulmonary vein isolation (SPVI). However, it is not known if one approach is better than the other. This randomized study will evaluate and compare the efficacy of CPVA versus SPVI in subjects undergoing ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation only. Subjects will have a 50/50 chance of receiving either the CPVA or SPVI ablation method.
The purpose of this study is to collect preliminary safety and effectiveness data evaluating the Toray Satake Balloon Thermal Ablation System (TSB)to treat subjects with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation that is resistant to antiarrhythmic drug therapy.
* Hypothesis: Focal Impulse and Rotor Modulation (FIRM) will substantially reduce or eliminate clinical atrial fibrillation in subjects with accepted indications for catheter ablation of paroxysmal AF, compared to standard pulmonary vein isolation. * Summary: This is a prospective randomized study to assess the safety and effectiveness of FIRM procedures only, versus standard Pulmonary Vein Isolation (PVI) procedures for the treatment of symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
