What is the comparative efficacy and effectiveness of AF catheter ablation on short- (6-12 months) and long- (>12 months) term outcomes in the general adult and Medicare populations? Comparisons of interest include: a) Catheter ablation compared with medical therapy b) Comparing ablation using different energy sources Key Question 2. What are the comparative short- and long-term complications and harms (e.g., periprocedural or device-related harms) associated with AF catheter ablation in the general adult and Medicare populations? Comparisons of interest include: a) Catheter ablation compared with medical therapy b) Comparing ablation using different energy sources Key Question 3. Are there modifications of efficacy, effectiveness, or harms of catheter ablation by patient-level characteristics such as age, sex, type of AF, comorbidities, risk for stroke or bleeding events, condition (i.e., patients with significant left ventricular dysfunction/heart failure or patients with significant left atrial enlargement or left ventricular hypertrophy), provider/setting characteristics or technique/approach? Comparisons of interest include: a) Catheter ablation compared with medical therapy b) Comparing ablation using different energy sources 2 Final Topic Refinement Document Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation - Project ID: CRDT0913 Draft Analytic Framework Figure 1.

  • Press Release Paris, May 2010
    Press Release Paris, May 2010 LEFOULON-DELALANDE FOUNDATION The 2010 Grand Prix Scientifique has been awarded to PROF. MICHEL HAÏSSAGUERRE Director of the Department of Cardiac Arrhythmia at the University Hospital of Bordeaux The Lefoulon-Delalande Foundation’s Grand Prix Scientifique , worth 500,000 Euros, is intended to reward a personality in the world of science who has made a significant scientific contribution to physiology, biology or cardiovascular medicine. The 2010 Grand Prix Scientifique has been awarded to the French research scientist, Michel Haïssaguerre, for his revolutionary discoveries in the field of cardiac arrhythmias and more particularly his work into the causes and treatment of atrial and ventricular fibrillations. This prize will make it possible to fund the creation of LIRYC – An Institute for Cardiac Rhythm Studies and Cardiac Modelling, a project in which Michel Haïssaguerre is one of the main initiators. This global institution, which is devoted to the study of electrical malfunctions of the heart, could allow - by pooling the skills of various European laboratories - major progress to be made and the number of people suffering from this pathology to be reduced by many thousands. The Prize will be awarded under the Cupola of the Institut de France On Wednesday, June 9th, 2010, at 3pm as will all the other scientific and cultural Grands Prix awarded by Institut de France foundations: The Christophe and Rodolphe Mérieux, Louis D., NRJ and Simone and Cino del Duca Foundations MICHEL HAÏSSAGUERRE Michel Haïssaguerre was born in 1955 in Bayonne (France). With a Master’s Degree in Human Biology, he obtained a PhD in Medicine in 1982.

Mapping the Substrate of Atrial Fibrillation: Tools and Techniques A Dissertation Presented by Bryce E. Benson to The Faculty of the Graduate College of The University of Vermont In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Specializing in Bioengineering October, 2016 Defense Date: August 25th, 2016 Dissertation Examination Committee: Peter Spector, M.D., Advisor Jason Bates, Ph.D. Mary Dunlop, Ph.D. Margaret Eppstein, Ph.D., Chairperson Cynthia J. Forehand, Ph.D., Dean of Graduate College Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia that affects an estimated 33.5 million people worldwide. Despite its prevalence and economic burden, treatments remain relatively ineffective. Interventional treatments using catheter ablation have shown more success in cure rates than pharmacologic methods for AF. However, success rates diminish drastically in patients with more advanced forms of the disease. The focus of this research is to develop a mapping strategy to improve the suc- cess of ablation.
