Prospective Randomized Study on Clinical Effectiveness of Carvo-Tricuspid Isthmus Block in Patients With Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation

March 26, 2019 updated by: Yonsei University
Prospective Randomized Study on Clinical Effectiveness of Carvo-Tricuspid Isthmus (CTI) Block in Patients with Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAF) will be performed. Study will be composed with two arms including 4 pulmonary vein isolation and pulmonary vein isolation with CTI block. After that all patients will be followed up by HRS(Heart Rhythm Society) 2010 expert consensus guideline.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: CTI group
CTI(Cavo-Tricuspid Isthmus)
  • PVI (pulmonary isolation)
  • Catheter ablation of cavo-tricuspid isthmus line for treatment of atrial fibrillation

Catheter is inserted into inferior venacava (IVC) and right atrium (RA) via femoral vein. And the procedure is to block bidirectionally between inferior venacava (IVC) and the annulus of tricuspid valve (TV) by using electrical energy of catheter tip.

Other Names:
  • radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA), Catheter ablation of cavo-tricuspid isthmus line for treatment of atrial flutter
Placebo Comparator: Non CTI group
Non CTI (Cavo-Tricuspid Isthmus)
PVI (pulmonary isolation)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Time Frame
Recurrence of Atrial fibrillation (AF free survival)
Time Frame: 3 month after catheter ablation
