NCT00925522

Brief Summary

To demonstrate that ablation with the Therapy Cool Path Duo cardiac ablation system can eliminate ischemic VT and that its use does not result in an unacceptable risk of serious adverse events.

Study Arms (1)

Therapy Cool Path Duo Cardiac Ablation System

EXPERIMENTAL

All patients who are eligible receive cardiac ablation procedure for Ischemic Ventricular Tachycardia

Device: Therapy Cool Path Duo Cardiac Ablation System

Interventions

Cardiac Ablation Procedure for Ischemic VT using a flexible, insulated 7F all braided catheter that contains an internal lumen connected to 12 open conduits at the 4mm tip electrode for infusion of heparinized saline during radiofrequency ablation; records intracardiac electrograms and can be utilized for cardiac simulation during diagnostic electrophysiologic studies/evaluation. 1500T9-VT generator is a microprocessor-controlled device that produces a continuous unmodulated radiofrequency (RF) output of 485 kHz. The Generator will be used in Temperature Control mode only. The catheter delivers the RF power from the generator in a monopolar mode between its distal electrode (tip electrode) and a large indifferent electrode.
