Eligibility:

20-90 years
Phase:
NA
Brief Summary
Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been the most frequently occurring, sustained arrhythmia, which causes significant morbidity and mortality. AF may not always be a totally random process. It can be mainta...
Detailed Description
In this prospective trial, investigators will investigate the long-term efficacy of catheter ablation of non-paroxysmal AF, based on selective atrial substrate modification (e.g. wavefrom periodicity ...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Patients who sign the informed consent forms, and allow to be followed.
- Symptomatic AF refractory or intolerant to at least one Class 1 or 3 antiarrhythmic medication.
- Patients with persistent/permanent AF (sustained beyond seven days, or lasting less than seven days but necessitating pharmacologic or electrical cardioversion).
- Patients with age equal or greater than 20 years old regardless of gender.
Exclusion
- The presence of a atrial or ventricular thrombus.
- Patients who are allergic to or unsuitable for use with the contrast media.
- Pregnant patients or patients who are unavailable to receive X-ray.
- Patients with renal insufficiency.
- Patients had autonomic nervous system disorder (e.g. respiratory apnea) or previous catheter ablation in the LA or MAZE procedure.
- Patients who do not need atrial substrate modification (patients with non-paroxysmal AF respond to PVI in terms of procedural termination of AF).
- Patients with age less than 20 years old or greater than 90 years old regardless of gender.
