Esophageal Temperature During PVI Using Q-DOT Micro

Esophageal Temperature Dynamics and Injury During Pulmonary Vein Isolation With Temperature Controlled Very-High-Power Short-Duration Lesions Using the Novel Q-DOT Micro Ablation Catheter


Sponsor

Cedars-Sinai Medical Center

Enrollment

30 participants

Start Date

Oct 4, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This study will assess how two different ablation strategies, using two different ablation catheters during catheter ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, affect the temperature of the esophagus during ablation, and the risk of injury to the esophagus.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is monitoring the temperature of the esophagus (the tube connecting your throat to your stomach) during a heart procedure called pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) — a catheter ablation treatment for atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). The esophagus sits very close to the heart, and this study aims to assess safety during the procedure. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older - You have been diagnosed with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (episodes of irregular heartbeat that come and go) - You are scheduled for your first catheter ablation procedure using radiofrequency energy (a specific type of PVI) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have had a prior left atrial ablation procedure - You have conditions that make capsule endoscopy (a small swallowable camera) unsafe, such as esophageal narrowing or inflammatory bowel disease - Your physician determines the specific ablation catheter being studied would be unsafe for you Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
