Why the study?
Does nonfluoroscopic ICE-guided catheter ablation affect procedure duration or long-term efficacy in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation?
Does nonfluoroscopic ICE-guided catheter ablation affect procedure duration or long-term efficacy in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation?
Nonfluoroscopic ICE-guided catheter ablation for paroxysmal AF is feasible and safe without compromising procedure duration or long-term efficacy.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports nonfluoroscopic ICE-guided AF ablation in selected cases; leaves open broader adoption pending prospective trials.
Nonfluoroscopic ICE-guided catheter ablation of AF without prior cardiac image integration or angiography is feasible and safe. PVI without fluoroscopy did not affect procedure duration or long-term efficacy.
