Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
12-month Treatment Success Rate
Time Frame: 12 months

The rate of 12-month treatment success following ablation procedure using the Globe Pulsed Field System. Treatment success is defined as freedom from treatment failure, where treatment failure includes:

  • Documented recurrence of atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, atrial tachycardia (AF/AFL/AT) as evidenced by episodes ≥ 30 seconds on Holter monitoring or equivalent during the effectiveness evaluation period, or by an episode documented on the entire recording of the 12-lead ECG (≥ 10 seconds) at the 12-month evaluation/visit.
  • Acute procedural failure
  • Direct current (DC) cardioversion for AF/AFL/AT during the effectiveness evaluation period
  • Redo ablation failure
  • Antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) failure
  • Surgical treatment for AF/AFL/AT after the index procedure
12 months
Primary Safety Event Rate
Time Frame: 7 days

Rate of subjects presenting with one or more primary safety events up to and including 7 days after the index ablation procedure. Primary safety events comprise the following device- or procedure-related serious adverse events:

  • Death
  • Cardiac tamponade/perforation
  • Heart block
  • Major vascular access complication
  • Major bleeding
  • Myocardial infarction (MI)
  • Pericarditis requiring intervention
  • Pulmonary edema
  • Stroke/cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
  • Thromboembolism
  • Transient ischemic attack (TIA)
  • Vagal nerve injury resulting in gastroparesis
  • Atrio-esophageal fistula
  • Diaphragmatic paralysis/phrenic nerve injury
  • Severe pulmonary vein (PV) stenosis
7 days
