NCT03035227

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test if catheter ablation is better than medication therapy at treating arrhythmias originating from the upper and/or lower chambers of the heart in order to allow the heart to beat properly.

Study Arms (2)

Catheter Ablation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Catheter ablation procedure of atrial and/or ventricular arrhythmias.

Procedure: Catheter Ablation

Medical Therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Medical management using antiarrhythmic drugs per standard of care of treating physician.

Drug: Anti-Arrhythmics

Interventions

Catheter ablation of atrial or ventricular arrhythmia. The technique and type of ablation will be at the discretion of the treating electrophysiologists.

Catheter Ablation

Anti-Arrhythmic drugs that are deemed to be appropriate for the given participants's arrhythmia by the treating physician.

Medical Therapy
