Non-invasive Differentiation of Supraventricular Tachyarrhythmia

Non-invasive Differentiation of Supraventricular Tachyarrhythmias by Questionnaire and High-resolution ECG in the Context of Ablation Treatment

Sponsor

RWTH Aachen University

Enrollment

1,250 participants

Start Date

Sep 1, 2021

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Atrial Fibrillation Supraventricular Arrhythmia

Summary

1. Questionnaire for supraventricular tachycardia: About history and targeted diagnosis of supraventricular tachycardia 2. Extended Signal-averaged ECG for detailed P-Wave analysis and to calculate a virtual atrial electrocardiogram (ECG)

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria2

Scheduled for ablation of a supraventricular tachycardia (atrial fibrillation, typical atrial flutter, AV nodal reentry tachycardia, accessory pathway)
majority

Exclusion Criteria8

Unstable patient with need for intensive medical care
Lack of language skills or limited cognitive abilities that prevent a differentiated anamnesis and information.
\- Competing clinically present arrhythmias, including relevant supra- and ventricular extrasystole (\>5%/die).
Previous electrophysiological ablation at the same site for atrial fibrillation.
Relevant supra- and ventricular extrasystole (\>5%/die).
Other clinically present arrhythmias are not excluded if they can be sequentially triggered and ablated (e.g. atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter). Since separate detection is possible with the high-resolution ECG.
Implanted active electrical device (e.g. pacemaker, defibrillator, deep brain pacemaker)
Allergy to measuring electrodes
