The RIPPLE AT-PLUS Study

Ripple Mapping is used to map the atrial tachycardia mechanism. Using the scar thresholding technique the Ripple Map is interpreted and catheter ablation directed to the site of the heart identified as putative to the arrhythmia mechanism. All ablation lesions are confirmed to have conduction block across them using Ripple Mapping. This can include lesions created at previous ablation procedures.

Conventional activation mapping is used to map the atrial tachycardia mechanism. The resultant (activation) map is interpreted and ablation directed to the site of the heart identified as putative to the arrhythmia mechanism. All ablation lesions are confirmed to have conduction block across them using conventional mapping. This can include lesions created at previous ablation procedures.
