Efficacy and Safety of Superior Vena Cava Isolation and Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation (SAVE-AF)

Efficacy and Safety of Superior Vena Cava Isolation in Addition to Pulmonary Vein Isolation by Pulsed Field Ablation for Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most concerning diseases in the field of cardiac arrhythmias.
It is a type of rapid supraventricular arrhythmia characterized by rapid and disorganized contraction of the atria, which leads to ventricular rate disturbance, impaired cardiac function, and an increased risk of atrial mural thrombus formation.
AF severely reduces patients' quality of life and can cause complications such as heart failure, stroke, and sudden death.
Currently, the vast majority of AF episodes are triggered by pulmonary vein (PV) ectopic foci.
Therefore, catheter ablation is the preferred treatment strategy, with pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) being the cornerstone procedure.
However, a small proportion of patients may have non-PV triggers, particularly originating from the superior vena cava (SVC).
Conventional radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for SVC isolation carries unpredictable risks, including damage to the sinus node and the phrenic nerve.
Therefore, this study aims to investigate the impact of empirical SVC electrical isolation in addition to PVI on the success rate of AF ablation, using pulsed field ablation (PFA)-a non-thermal ablation modality with tissue selectivity and a favorable safety profile.
