The modified ICE-guided transseptal puncture technique demonstrated a high success rate and favorable safety profile, indicating its potential for clinical application.
Does modified ICE-guided transseptal puncture under ablation catheter guidance improve procedural efficiency and success compared to traditional ICE-guided transseptal puncture in patients undergoing AF ablation?
Modified ICE-guided transseptal puncture using an ablation catheter for guidance is a safe and effective technique that significantly reduces puncture attempts and procedural duration compared to the traditional approach.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
This study presents a modified ICE-guided TSP technique using an ablation catheter for guidance. This technique simplifies the operation of the puncture component and eliminates the need for ICE view tracking. It offers advantages including high success rate, favorable safety profile, simple procedural steps, ease of use, and a short learning curve, making it worthy of clinical promotion and application.
