Higher power achieves greater local impedance drop, shorter ablation time, and more transmural lesion formation in comparison to lower power in local impedance guided radiofrequency ablation of atrial fibrillation

ConclusionIn LI-guided ablation, the HP could achieve a larger LI drop and shorter time to minimum LI, which may result in more transmural lesion formation compared to a LP setting.
