Randomised Prospective Trial Comparing Contact Force and Non-contact Force Guided Catheter Ablation for Cavotricuspid Isthmus Dependent Atrial Flutter

Canada100 participantsStarted 2016-05-18

Plain-language summary

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a standard treatment option for cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) dependent atrial flutter. We plan to perform a randomized prospective trial comparing the efficacy of contact force (CF) guided CTI ablation against catheter ablation with the operator blinded to contact force parameters.
