About this study

This study is part of a multiphase study. Phase 1 involves 10 patients at a single centre. Phase 2 will be done a multi centre study.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patient is at least 18 years old.
  • Patient is undergoing an atrial fibrillation ablation procedure.
  • Patient has a transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) within the 48 hours prior to ablation procedure to rule out left atrial thrombus.
  • Patient provides informed, written consent for participation in the study.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients in whom placement of an ICE catheter in the right atrium for adequate atrial visualization is not technically feasible (as evaluated and determined by the physician performing the procedure).
  • Patients in whom transseptal puncture is relatively contraindicated.
  • Patients in whom left atrial clot or dense spontaneous contrast is identified on TEE, which would increase thromboembolic risk.
  • Women of child bearing potential, in whom pregnancy cannot be excluded.
  • Patients unable to grant informed, written consent for participation in the study.

Treatment and study plan

Foresight ICE System

Device

The Foresight ICE System is composed of a sterile, single-use catheter intended to operate with a Foresight ICE PIM and Hummingbird Console.

Primary outcomes

  1. Successful transseptal puncture during atrial fibrillation ablation procedure under the guidance of study device

    Time frame: During ablation procedure (2-4 h)
