Evaluation of the DuoVT PFA System for Ventricular Tachycardia

Who can take part

• Sustained Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (SMMVT) with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy (ICM); Patients with SMMVT and ischemic cardiomyopathy meet all of the following criteria:; History of myocardial infarction (MI); At least one episode of sustained (continuous for >30 seconds or requiring ICD intervention for termination) monomorphic ventricular tachycardia within the 180 days prior to enrollment; SMMVT recurrence despite class I or III antiarrhythmic drug therapy, or when AAD therapy is not tolerated, contraindicated or not desired; Implanted with an ICD (transvenous or subcutaneous) or CRT-D prior to the index ablation; for transvenous systems, leads must be implanted ≥30 days prior
• Frequent premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) meeting class II a/b indications for ablation with documentation of PVCs on 24-Hour monitor in the 90 days prior to enrollment. Subjects should meet one or more of the following criteria:; Symptomatic PVCs when class I or III AADs have failed, are not tolerated, or are not desired (class II a); Suspected PVC-induced cardiomyopathy (>10% burden) (class II a); Frequent PVCs in patients with structural heart disease (>10% burden) (class II a); Asymptomatic, high burden PVCs (>15% burden) (class II b); Age 18 through 80 years old 3. Willing and able to provide written informed consent 4. Willing and able to comply with the study visit schedule and requirements
