NCT02591875

Brief Summary

The "LEONARDO" study is a non-randomized, multicenter, prospective study in which consecutive patients indicated for Atrial Flutter isthmus-dependent (AFL) ablation will be enrolled. Patients can be treated with any market released catheter for ablation. The decision to perform the ablation of AFL will be made based on clinical evaluation of the investigators according to their clinical practice. The study does not require specific surgical techniques. Patient time commitment for the study is approximately 12 months.The study has been designed to describe the italian clinical practice in relation to the approach of AFL ablation. In particular, the investigators will describe the methods for the validation of ablation success, the techniques adopted, and the patient management approaches in the participating centers.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Subjects With Complete Bidirectional Conduction Block

    Acute success is defined as the confirmation of complete bidirectional conduction block across the cavo-tricuspid isthmus. The percentage of subjects with confirmed conduction block will serve as the outcome measure.

    Time Frame: within 30 minutes after ablation procedure

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Recurrence of symptoms of AFL, measured as the proportion of patients reporting symptoms during follow-up

    12 months

  • Recurrence of AFL, measured as the proportion of patients with an episode longer than 30s documented at 24h Holter ECG recording during follow-up

    12 months

  • Lesion's validation criteria

    an average of 12 months following the ablation procedure

  • Ablation procedure time

    intraoperative

  • Acute adverse events

    intraoperative

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Population

All consecutive patients, clinically indicated for an atrial flutter ablation, will be enrolled after signing of an informed consent form and an authorization to use and disclose health information.

You may qualify if:

  • Patient undergoing ablation of atrial flutter isthmus-dependent
  • Patient able to sign an authorization to use and disclose health information or an Informed Consent.
  • Patient available to attend scheduled follow-up visits at the center for at least 12 months

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient is participating in another clinical study that may have an impact on the study endpoints
