Abstract Background Although Ablation Index (AI)-guided ablation facilitates creation of
lesions of consistent depth, pulmonary vein (PV) reconnection is still commonly observed …

Purpose Reconnection of pulmonary veins (PVs) remains common following radiofrequency
catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF). Ablation Index (AI) is a novel ablation quality …

Purpose The ablation index (AI) is a recently developed marker for ablation lesion quality
that incorporates contact force (CF), time, and power in a weighted formula. There is a …

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation outcome is still operator dependent. Ablation
Index (AI) is a new lesion quality marker that has been demonstrated to allow acute durable …

Introduction Although left atrial wall thickness (LAWT) is known to be varied, a fixed target
Ablation Index (AI) based pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has been suggested in catheter …

Purpose Ablation index (AI) is a radiofrequency lesion quality marker. The AI value that
allows effective and safe pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is still debated. We evaluated the …

Background Ablation index (AI), a novel lesion quality marker, includes contact force, time,
and power of radiofrequency (RF) application, but not regional variation in wall thickness …

Background Ablation index (AI) is a novel technology of ablation lesion quality to help
improve homogeneity of lesion size and continuity. In this study, we aim to evaluate whether …

Background and objective Contact force (CF) sensing is a novel technology used for
catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF). We compared the single procedure success of CF …

Optimal Contact Force for AF Ablation Background Regional differences in optimal contact
force (CF) to prevent acute pulmonary vein reconnection (APVR) during catheter ablation for …
