NS-PFA Catheter Ablation of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation With the Pulse Biosciences CellFX System

Официальное название

Safety and Effectiveness of the CellFX® nsPFA Catheter Endocardial Ablation System for the Treatment of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation

Обзор

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the CellFX nano-second Pulsed Field Ablation (nsPFA) Cardiac Catheter Ablation System in treating recurrent, drug-resistant, symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF).

Подробное описание

This study is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized clinical investigation. Eligible participants with drug-resistant paroxysmal AF who are clinically indicated for a cardiac catheter ablation procedure will undergo nsPFA ablation with the CellFX Cardiac Catheter Ablation System. The primary endpoints will be assessed at 6 months after the ablation procedure.

Вмешательства

• Устройство CellFX nsPFA Cardiac Catheter System
  The CellFX nsPFA Cardiac Catheter System includes the nsPFA 360 Endocardial Ablation Catheter, CellFX Console, switcher box/adapter, and sensing cable. The System is a proprietary endocardial catheter system designed for use in cardiac electrophysiology procedures to treat arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation. The nano-PFA 360 Catheter ablates cardiac tissue using nonthermal nanosecond pulses of electrical energy. nsPFA is a cell-specific, nonthermal ablation technology that delivers nanos
