简要总结
The critical atrial substrates in maintaining persistent atrial fibrillation might be identified by Cycle-Length Mapping (CLM) module. Based on the results of multicenter study in Cycle-Length Mapping between Taipei Veterans General Hospital (Professor Shih-Ann Chen) and IRCCS San Donato Policlinic (Professor Carlo Pappone), targeted CLM driver-ablation provided significant benefits in terms of arrhythmia freedom in the treatment of persistent AF. These findings support a patient-tailored, mapping-based strategy for individuals affected by non-paroxysmal AF. The new ultra-high density mapping catheter, OPTRELL, will be available soon in Taiwan. Therefore, we proposed that the degree of atrial interstitial fibrosis detected by using both unipolar and bipolar voltage map in sinus rhythm and CLM in AF with OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter would be further better characterization of the atrial substrate and could be potentially critical targeted in eliminating the sources of AF.
As additional substrate mapping provided benefits compared to PVI alone in patients with persistent AF, we hypothesize that combination of electrophysiological and substrate-guided ablation strategy using CLM module with OPTRELL™ Mapping Catheter could be used to guide radiofrequency ablation in the patient with non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

入选标准
- •Patients who sign the informed consent forms, and allow to be followed.
- •Symptomatic AF refractory or intolerant to at least one Class 1 or 3 antiarrhythmic medication.
- •Patients with persistent/permanent AF (sustained beyond seven days, or lasting less than seven days but necessitating pharmacologic or electrical cardioversion). Persistent AF is defined as an AF episode which lasts longer than 7 days, Persistent AF which lasted longer than 12 months will be defined as long standing persistent AF.
- •Patients with age equal or greater than 20 years old regardless of gender.
排除标准
- •The presence of an atrial or ventricular thrombus.
- •Patients who are allergic to or unsuitable for use with the contrast media.
- •Pregnant patients or patients who are unavailable to receive X-ray.
- •Patients with severe renal insufficiency. (Glomerular Filtration Rate [GFR] < 15 mg/dl or under dialysis)
- •Patients had autonomic nervous system disorder (e.g. respiratory apnea).
- •Patients with age less than 20 years old or greater than 90 years old regardless of gender.
- •Contraindications to anticoagulation.

时间窗: 12 months
The endpoints are recurrence of all atrial arrhythmia, including AF, atrial flutter, and atrial tachycardia, and defined as an episode lasting \> 30 seconds, 3 months after the ablation, during follow-up with ambulatory ECG monitoring every 3 months.
