5. Patients who voluntarily participate and sign an informed consent form.
* Exclusion criteria:
1. Patients with severe valvular heart disease or congenital heart disease;
2. Patients with severe left ventricular or right ventricular heart failure;
3. Patients with severe systemic diseases, such as liver failure, kidney failure, or tumours;
4. Patients with cardiomyopathy or aortic dissection;
3. Clinical diagnosis: atypical atrial flutter (AFL)
* Inclusion criteria:
1. Patients aged 18 to 80 years;
2. Patients diagnosed with atypical atrial flutter (AFL) via electrocardiogram (ECG) or Holter monitoring;
3. Patients with clinical symptoms (e.g., palpitations, chest tightness, fatigue, etc.) that significantly impair their quality of life;
4. Patients who meet the criteria for atrial tachycardia ablation and have no other severe comorbidities;
5. Voluntarily participate and sign an informed consent form.
* Exclusion criteria:
1. Patients with severe heart disease, such as cardiomyopathy or severe valvular disease;
2. Patients with severe pulmonary disease, such as pulmonary arterial hypertension;
3. Patients with a history of major cardiac surgery (e.g., heart transplantation);
4. Clinically diagnosed with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF)
* Inclusion criteria:
1. Patients aged 18 to 80 years;
2. Diagnosed with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) via electrocardiogram (ECG) or Holter monitoring;
3. Frequent episodes of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation with symptoms such as palpitations, fatigue, and dyspnoea, and meeting the criteria for ablation;
4. No other severe cardiac or systemic diseases, and meeting the criteria for ablation;
5. Voluntarily participating and signing the informed consent form.
* Exclusion criteria:
1. Patients with severe valvular heart disease, aortic dissection, or cardiomyopathy;
2. High-risk patients with a history of anticoagulant therapy or currently receiving anticoagulant therapy (e.g., history of thrombosis or stroke);
3. Patients with severe underlying conditions such as cancer or severe diabetes;
5. Clinical diagnosis: Persistent atrial fibrillation (PsAF)
* Inclusion criteria:
1. Patients aged 18 to 80 years;
2. Diagnosed with persistent atrial fibrillation (PsAF) via electrocardiogram (ECG) or Holter monitoring;
3. Atrial fibrillation persisting for more than 7 days and symptoms affecting the patient's quality of life;
4. Clear indications for ablation and no other severe comorbidities;
5. Voluntarily participating and signing an informed consent form.
Exclusion criteria:
1. Presence of severe valvular heart disease or cardiomyopathy;
2. History of stroke or clinical evidence of thrombus formation;
3. Severe heart failure (NYHA III-IV class);
4. High-risk cardiac conditions (e.g., acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease); In the above different types of rapid arrhythmias, the inclusion criteria primarily focus on the diagnosis and control of clinical symptoms for different types of arrhythmias, while the exclusion criteria focus on avoiding patients with severe comorbidities or those unable to tolerate surgery. Through this patient screening method, the safety of the study and the accuracy of the data are ensured, thereby enabling a better assessment of the clinical efficacy of the new EasyStars catheter.
