About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation focused on measuring Hybrid ablation, Thoracoscope

Eligibility Criteria

undefined - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with at least one anti-arrhythmic drugs
  • Persistent AF lasting more than 1 year or with a left atrial diameter>50mm

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Previous percutaneous catheter ablation or surgical ablation
  • Presence of significant structural heart disease (dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, valvular heart disease, untreated coronary artery disease)
  • Left atrial diameter>60mm
  • Previous thoracic or lung operation
  • Left atrial thrombosis or left atrial appendage thrombosis
  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/Forced vital capacity (FVC)<70%、FEV1<50% anticipated value)

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Hybrid ablation group

Thoracoscopic surgical ablation group

Arm Description

Patients in this group will receive one-stop intervention with totally thoracoscopic surgical ablation and percutaneous catheter ablation.

Patients in this group will receive only totally thoracoscopic surgical ablation with Fuwai lesion set.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Survival rate without any recurrence of AF
Without detections of AF (episodes longer than 30 seconds)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Burden of AF
Burden of AF according to Tele-ECG-Card lasting for one week
Quality of life score
Measured with questionnaire of AF effect on Quality of Life
Adverse events
Major adverse cardiovascular events; Major bleeding events; Major thromboembolic events.
Left atrial function
left atrial ejection fraction and left atrial expansion index
postoperative complications
perioperative complication of catheter ablation and thoracoscopic surgical abaltion
Survival rate without any recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia
Survival rate without AF, atrial flutter or atrial tachycardia will be defined by absence of any of these electrocardiographically documented events lasting > 30 seconds.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Previous evidence indicated that the outcomes of both video-assisted thoracoscopic surgical ablation and percutaneous radiofrequency ablation therapy for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) were unsatisfied. Recently, hybrid ablation therapy for AF had encouraging outcomes. However, there were no randomized, controlled clinical studies to prove the effectiveness of this new strategy. This study is aimed to compare the outcomes of hybrid ablation with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgical ablation for persistent AF with enlarged left atrium.
Detailed Description
This study is aimed to compare the outcomes of hybrid ablation with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgical ablation for persistent AF with enlarged left atrium.
