Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAF)
Conditions
Brief summary
This is the first in man study of CadioPulseTM ( pulsed field ablation system) developed and manufactured by Hangzhou Dinova EP Technology Co., Ltd, which can be used for Pulmonary vein isolation for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. This study aims to initially verify the safety and efficacy of the device.
Interventions
Using pulsed field ablation (PFA) catheter, steerable sheath and pulsed field generator to treat atria fibrillation.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The effectiveness of the pulsed field ablation system in the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is evaluated by the 12-month ablation success rate of atrial fibrillation. | 12 months after the ablation | 12-month ablation success rate of atrial fibrillation is defined by ECG data (including ECG and 24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram (Holter)) during the effective evaluation period (blanking period to the end of 12-month follow-up), without recording AF, AFL or AT (Arrhythmia monitoring device ≥ 30 seconds). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Acute isolation success rate | 30 minutes after the ablation | 30 minutes after CPVI, inflow block was confirmed in all clinically relevant pulmonary veins following induction with isoproterenol. |
| The rate of repeat ablation within 12 months. | 12 months after the ablation | The rate of repeat ablation within 12 months. |
| Incidence of device-related or operating-related major adverse events (MAE) 3 months after surgery | 3 months after the ablation | Including death, myocardial infarction, stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), pulmonary vein stenosis, phrenic nerve palsy, systemic circulatory embolism, pericarditis\*, cardiac tamponade/perforation, atrial esophageal fistula, and severe vascular access complications. |
| Procedure efficiency | immediately after the ablation | Total procedure time (defined as the total time from initial femoral venipuncture to final catheter removal), catheter dwell time (time between the pulsed field ablation catheter entering the left atrium and its withdrawal from the left atrium), pulse discharge time (The total time of delivering pulse energy through the pulsed field ablation catheter, single ablation time ablation times), total X-ray exposure time (the total time of X-ray imaging of the catheter). |
