Pulmonary Artery Denervation in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Group 2 of Pulmonary Hypertension (PADN+AF)
Atrial Fibrillation, Pulmonary Hypertension
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Atrial Fibrillation focused on measuring Atrial fibrillation, Pulmonary Hypertension, Remote magnetic navigation, Catheter ablation
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Mean pulmonary artery pressure > 25 mm Hg and pulmonary artery wedge pressure > 15 mm Hg by right heart catheterization Paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation NYHA II-III BNP > 105 pg/ml Indications for catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation according guidelines LVEF > 50% Exclusion Criteria: Group 1,3,4 of the pulmonary hypertension Left atrium diameter > 6 cm Planned open heart surgery procedure Previous heart valve surgery Severe aortic, pulmonary, tricuspid or mitral, valves regurgitation Thrombus in the left heart chambers

Arm 2
Sham Comparator
Active Comparator
Pulmonary vein isolation+sham pulmonary artery denervation (group 1)
Pulmonary vein isolation+pulmonary artery denervation (group 2)
In group 1, standard pulmonary vein isolation will be performed (with manual or remote robotic 3D navigation using radiofrequency energy) with sham pulmonary artery denervation procedure including 3D reconstruction of the pulmonary artery tree and creation of the false ablation point
In group 2, standard pulmonary vein isolation will be performed (with manual or remote robotic 3D navigation using radiofrequency energy) combined with pulmonary artery denervation procedure
