Brief summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to treatment of patients with persistent atrial fibrillation with PFA/RFA. 10 patients will be treated by PFA/RFA catheter or PFA catheter only. Participants will followed 1、3 month after catheter ablation

Interventions

OTHERa dual energy catheter (RF and PFA) or PFA catheter only will be to treat PeAF,Cardiac Pulsed Electric Field Ablation Catheter

This study will be used two catheters, the contact force sensing catheter able to deliver both RF and PFA energy, this catheter provides both the radiofrequency (RF) energy and pulsed field ablation (PFA) energy to the catheter through the toggling of the two energy sources on the generator monitor. Another catheter is PFA catheter only.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Immediate success rate1 Day of catheter ablationRefers to the proportion of the number of subjects electrically isolated in each AF patient after surgery to the total number of subjects enrolled.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Ablation success at 3-month after the catheter ablation3 monthsAblation success is defined as no recurrence with no anti-arrhythmic drugs by taking history of symptoms from the patient and by Holter 24 Hours.
