Coronary Computed Tomography AngioGraphy Prior to Catheter Ablation in Patients With Atrial FIBrillation

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

The purpose of this randomized, controlled trial is to investigate whether coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography prior to catheter ablation and derived treatment (medical anti-ischemic and multimodality treatment and/or mechanical revascularization) can improve clinical outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing catheter ablation. A sub-study will investigate the effect of different ablation strategies on clinical outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing catheter ablation.

Participants
Target number of participants: 852
Treatments
Experimental: Analysis of coronary CT angiography and CAC scoring at the time of catheter ablation
Based on the results of the coronary CT angiography and CAC scoring in the intervention group, relevant anti-ischemic and multimodality treatment will be initiated according to clinical guidelines.
No_intervention: No analysis of coronary CT angiography and CAC scoring at the time of catheter ablation
Patients in the control group will follow the current standard of care prior to ablation.
