Utility of Esophageal Cooling Therapy for the Prevention of Thermal Injury During Atrial Fibrillation Ablation (eCoolAF)

University of Pennsylvania·interventional·Posted Oct 1, 2018·Updated Oct 5, 2022

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Esophageal Cooling and Control for Atrial Fibrillation. Completed, enrolled 55 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if esophageal cooling using the Attune Medical Esophageal Heat Transfer Device (EnsoETM) limits the number or seriousness of injury to the esophagus during atrial fibrillation ablation procedures. The EnsoETM is an FDA cleared device used for temperature management, but is not routinely used during atrial fibrillation ablation procedures.

Interventions

Esophageal Coolingdevice

The EnsoETM is a non-sterile multi-lumen silicone tube placed in the esophagus for the purpose of cooling or warming a patient while simultaneously allowing gastric decompression and drainage.

Controldevice

Standard of care involves standard temperature probe monitoring.
