Study Arms (1)

GP Ablation

EXPERIMENTAL

Single arm study with GP ablations performed during open-chest surgery

Device: Pulsed Field Ablation of epicardial Ganglionated Plexi.

Interventions

Using Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA), delivered via an epicardial catheter, to selectively ablate the ganglionated plexi (GP) on the epicardial surface of the heart.
