Foresight Intracardiac Echocardiography (ICE) System
Early Phase 1
Completed
- Conditions
- Atrial Fibrillation
- Registration Number
- NCT02514876
- Lead Sponsor
- Conavi
- Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the efficacy of 2D forward-looking and 3D Intracardiac Echocardiography (ICE) to guide septal punctures during Atrial Fibrillation ablation procedures.
- Detailed Description
This study is part of a multiphase study. Phase 1 involves 10 patients at a single centre. Phase 2 will be done a multi centre study.
Recruitment & Eligibility
- Status
- COMPLETED
- Sex
- All
- Target Recruitment
- 10
Inclusion Criteria
- Patient is at least 18 years old.
- Patient is undergoing an atrial fibrillation ablation procedure.
- Patient has a transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) within the 48 hours prior to ablation procedure to rule out left atrial thrombus.
- Patient provides informed, written consent for participation in the study.
Exclusion Criteria
- Patients in whom placement of an ICE catheter in the right atrium for adequate atrial visualization is not technically feasible (as evaluated and determined by the physician performing the procedure).
- Patients in whom transseptal puncture is relatively contraindicated.
- Patients in whom left atrial clot or dense spontaneous contrast is identified on TEE, which would increase thromboembolic risk.
- Women of child bearing potential, in whom pregnancy cannot be excluded.
- Patients unable to grant informed, written consent for participation in the study.
