Outcome
PVI durability, safety, and 1-year rate of atrial arrhythmia recurrence
PVI with a single-shot PFA catheter demonstrates excellent durability, acceptable safety, and low 1-year recurrence rates for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
Abstract
PVI with a "single-shot" PFA catheter results in excellent PVI durability and acceptable safety with a low 1-year rate of atrial arrhythmia recurrence. These data mitigate concern that the nonthermal ablative mechanism of PFA might mask undiscovered compromises to clinical success.
