Cardioneuroablation for Bradyarrhythmia (Sinus Node and Atrioventricular Node Dysfunction): a Sham-controlled Randomised Multicentre Trial

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Procedure, Diagnostic test
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

This is a multicenter prospective randomized blind controlled trial with a sham procedure group of the efficacy and safety of cardioneuroablation as a method of treating symptomatic bradycardia without a permanent pacemaker implantation

Eligibility
Participation Requirements
Sex: All
Minimum Age: 18
Maximum Age: 65
Healthy Volunteers: f
View:

• Any of the following variants of bradyarrhythmia in patients aged 18-65 years:

• (1.1.) Symptomatic sinus bradycardia or bradycardia due to atrioventricular blockade, including transient.

• (1.2.) Severe asymptomatic sinus bradycardia with a rhythm frequency of \<30 beats/min.

• (1.3.) Transient atrioventricular block of II-III degree or permanent block of II degree.

• (1.4.) Repeated fainting or pre-fainting states with a proven association with bradycardia (without injury).

• (1.5.) Rhythm pauses \>6 seconds.

• In combination with the following two criteria:

• Positive reaction to physical activity and/or atropine test:

• (2.1.) Increase in sinus rhythm frequency ≥25% or \>90 beats/min. (2.2.) The transition of atrioventricular blockade of the II-III degree to the 1st degree or complete normalization of atrioventricular conduction at the sinus rhythm.

• Sinus rhythm at the time of switching on

Treatments
Active_comparator: Cardioneuroablation
Radiofrequency catheter transmyocardial ablation of the ganglion plexuses (GP) of the atria - cardioneuroablation. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia using intracardiac catheters. Radiofrequency applications will be applied to the endocardial surface of the left and/or right atria in places of typical localization of the densest GPs network in order to destroy nerve fibers and ganglia: in patients with sinus bradycardia - in the left and right atria (5 places with the highest concentration of ganglia); in patients with impaired atrioventricular conduction - in the right atrium and in the left atrium (1 place in the right atrium - at the ostium of the coronary sinus; 2 places in the left atrium - opposite the ostium of the coronary sinus and opposite the Marshall ligament/vein).
Sham_comparator: Sham group
In the control (sham) group, endocardial electrophysiological study will be performed, but patients will not know which procedure they performed (they are blinded in relation to the distribution group). The monitoring will be performed according to the same protocol as in the cardioneuroablation group. In case of recurrence of symptomatic bradycardia and/or (with) syncopal condition without traumatization of the patient in the control group, a transition to the cardioneuroablation group (cross-over) will be proposed. In case of disagreement, a pacemaker is implanted.
