Does pulsed-field ablation affect myocardial injury and inflammation compared to other ablation technologies in patients with atrial fibrillation?
Pulsed-field ablation for atrial fibrillation causes more myocardial injury but less inflammation compared to other ablation technologies.
Among the four investigated ablation technologies, PFA was associated with the highest myocardial injury and the lowest inflammatory reaction.
