Does pulsed field ablation prevent recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia compared to cryoballoon ablation in patients with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation?
Pulsed field ablation is noninferior to cryoballoon ablation for preventing atrial tachyarrhythmia recurrence in patients with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
Among patients with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, PFA was noninferior to cryoballoon ablation with respect to the incidence of a first recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia, as assessed by continuous rhythm monitoring.
