Brief Summary: This study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of personalized atrial septostomy (PAS) with combined use of radiofrequency-ablation and balloon-dilation (CURB) in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Detailed Description: Atrial septostomy is an important palliative therapy in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) . Though the safety of balloon atrial septostomy (BAS) is satisfactory, the incidence of spontaneous closure is higher, which limits the clinical utilization of this procedure. The device-implantation improves the long-term patency. However, the created fenestration is limited with fixed size and it is further complicated with the potential device-related complications.

Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) has the potential to cause irreversible damage around the rim of fenestration created with BAS, which might prevent the re-adhesion of the septal remnants. In addition, RFA on fossae ovalis might reduce the elastic recoil of local tissue and contribute to create larger inter-atrial fenestration with same BAS procedure. Therefore, the combined use of radiofrequency-ablation and balloon-dilation (CURB) might become a novel procedure to create a stable inter-atrial fenestration.

In this study, the adult patients who have HFrEF and HFpEF refractory to medical therapy may be eligible for this study.
