High acute success may support sweeping Halo feasibility in post-surgical IART; leaves open long-term durability pending controlled trials.
Does mapping and ablation using a sweeping Halo technique effectively treat post-surgical intra-atrial reentrant tachycardia?
Mapping with a sweeping Halo technique allows for highly successful acute ablation (94%) of post-surgical atrial tachycardias, though long-term recurrence occurs in nearly a third of patients.
