AV Junction Ablation or Optimal Medical Treatment in PatiEnts With Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy and Permanent Atrial Fibrillation

Status: Recruiting
Intervention Type: Procedure, Drug
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

A study comparing atrioventricular junction ablation (AVJA) versus continued optimum medical rate control in patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and atrial fibrillation (AF) with suboptimal heart rate control on optimum medication.

Eligibility
Participation Requirements
Sex: All
Minimum Age: 18
Maximum Age: 85
Healthy Volunteers: f
View:

• Treatment with CRT using either a biventricular pacemaker/defibrillator or conduction system pacemaker (\>6 months)

• Diagnosis of AF and classified as: permanent AF or recurrent persistent AF, requiring emergency visits and/or hospitalizations (at least one in recent year)

• Optimized HF medical treatment and rate control medication

• BiVP% + ventricular premature complex (VPC%) \<99% and \>85% during the minimum period of 1 month while already on optimum medical therapy (applicable only for patients with permanent AF)

• Age \>18 and \<85 years

• Signed informed consent
