NCT ID:
NCT03573869
Brief Summary:
In this study 404 patients with heart failure and an ejection fraction of 0.40 or less, with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, will be randomly assigned to standard treatment or standard treatment plus a session of cryoballoon ablation (left atrial balloon cryoablation for pulmonary vein isolation). All patients with either have an ICD or CRT-D/P device implanted or an implantable electrocardiographic monitoring device. The primary study endpoint will be the time to AF burden exceeding 1% over any 30-day period (calculated as the ratio of time spent in AF over total time).16 This AF burden corresponds to 7.2 hours per month.
A powered secondary endpoint will be the time to the composite of all-cause mortality and unplanned hospitalization for heart failure.
