简要总结
The purpose of this study is to examine the use of a point ablation catheter (Farapoint, Boston Scientific) in the mapping and ablation of focal ventricular arrhythmias (premature ventricular contractions or ventricular tachycardia) using pulsed field energy.
详细描述
Study Design - This is a prospective, single-center, single-arm clinical pilot study to assess the safety and effectiveness of ablation of focal ventricular arrhythmias using the Farapoint catheter. Sample Size - A total of 30 subjects will be included in this study. All patients will undergo treatment with the study PFA catheter. Study Population - The target population is subjects who are planned to undergo a clinically-indicated ablation procedure for managing their focal ventricular arrhythmias - premature ventricular contractions or ventricular tachycardias. Study Duration - Approximately 12 months: 3 months site start-up, 6 months enrollment and 3 months of follow up. Participant Duration - Subjects will undergo brief pre-procedural testing, the ablation procedure, and 3 months of post-procedural follow up. Primary Effectiveness Endpoint Chronic Single-Procedure Success: defined as a reduction in the burden of premature ventricular contracts (\>80%) for patients treated for PVCs or absence of sustained focal ventricular tachycardia for patients being treated for focal VTs without an increase in anti-arrhythmic medications at 3 month follow ups.

入排标准
入选标准
- •Subjects must meet ALL of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for participation in this clinical investigation:
- •Patient is planned for a catheter ablation procedure to ablate either:
- •Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) and a class I or IIa indication for catheter ablation of PVCS according to the 2019 HRS/EHRA/APHRS/LAHRS guidelines
- •Symptomatic Sustained Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia
- •Able and willing to provide written consent and comply with all testing and follow-up requirements
- •Above 18 years of age
排除标准
- •Documented intracardiac thrombus or (if this can be dissolved with anticoagulation, the patient would then be eligible to participate)
- •Contraindication to anticoagulation
- •Life expectancy or other disease processes likely to limit survival to less than 12 months.
- •Currently enrolled in an investigational study evaluating another device, biologic, or drug, that would interfere with this trial.
- •NYHA Class IV heart failure
- •Severe, untreated coronary artery disease which would preclude infusion of provocative agents
- •Severe aortic stenosis (AVA \< 1.0cm, or PG \> 64mmHg)
- •Severe mitral regurgitation.
- •Allergy to contrast which is unable to be adequately pre-medicated.
- •Acute non-cardiovascular illness or systemic infection

结局指标
主要结局
Freedom from PVC/VT recurrence
时间窗: at 3 months following ablation procedure
Freedom from PVC/VT recurrence defined as a reduction in the burden of premature ventricular contracts (\>80%) for patients treated for PVCs or absence of sustained focal ventricular tachycardia for patients being treated for focal VTs without an increase in anti-arrhythmic medications at 3 month follow ups. (Sustained Focal Tachycardia is defined as that persisting for \> 30 seconds or ventricular tachycardia which is sufficient to result in hemodynamic effect (i.e. hypotension or syncope))
次要结局
- Incidence of Adverse events(at 3 months following ablation procedure)
- Incidence of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)(at 3 months following ablation procedure)
- Incidence of non-serious adverse events(at 3 months following ablation procedure)
