Background Catheter-based pulmonary vein isolation is an effective treatment for
paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Pulsed field ablation, which delivers microsecond high-voltage …

Aims Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a novel atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation modality that has
demonstrated preferential tissue ablation, including no oesophageal damage, in first-in …

In the last three decades, ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) has become an evidence-based
safe and efficacious treatment for managing the most common cardiac arrhythmia. In 2007 …

Background: Pulsed field ablation (PFA) has a unique safety profile when used to treat atrial
fibrillation, largely related to its preferentiality for myocardial tissue ablation, in particular …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia and catheter
ablation, which can be used in symptomatic patients refractory to antiarrhythmic therapy …

Background: Pulsed field ablation is a novel nonthermal cardiac ablation modality using
ultra-rapid electrical pulses to cause cell death by a mechanism of irreversible …

Background: Pulsed field ablation represents an energy source specific for ablation of
cardiac arrhythmias including atrial fibrillation. The aim of the study was to describe the …

BACKGROUND: The cryoballoon (CB) represents the gold standard single-shot device for
pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Single-shot pulsed field …

Background During atrial fibrillation ablations using thermal energy, the treatment effect is
attributed to not just pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), but also to modulation of the autonomic …

Background Because of its safety,“single-shot” pulsed field ablation (PFA) catheters have
been developed for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). However, most atrial fibrillation (AF) …
