NCT04290559

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine the atrial fibrillation burden reduction, or absolute atrial fibrillation burden, associated with improvement in quality of life in patients undergoing ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • AF burden correlated with change in QOL.

    AF burden change and absolute AF burden correlated with change in QOL mesured at 12 and 24 months after the AF ablation

    12 months, 24 months

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Freedom of atrial arrhythmia

    12 months, 24 months

  • Economic evaluation

    12 months, 24 months

  • Incidence of silent AF recurrences

    12 months, 24 months

  • Impact of antiarrhythmic treatment

    12 months

Interventions

Patients will undergo insertion of a LINQ ILR before the atrial fibrillation ablation performed according to standard clinical practice.

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients with persistent or long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation and an AF burden of equal or more than 80%, referred for an atrial fibrillation catheter ablation.

You may qualify if:

  • Age \> 18 years
  • Patients undergoing first-time or redo AF ablation.
  • Persistent or long-standing persistent AF
  • Symptomatic atrial fibrillation
  • Willing and able to provide informed consent.
  • Willing and able to set up and utilize MyCareLink® home monitor and be remotely monitored
  • Atrial fibrillation burden equal or more than 80% prior to the ablation

You may not qualify if:

  • Paroxysmal AF
  • If the patient has had a cardioversion within 2 months of the ablation
  • Patients with contraindication to oral or intravenous anticoagulation.
  • Contraindication to implantation of an ILR
