First clinical data on artificial intelligence ‐guided catheter ablation in long‐standing persistent atrial fibrillation

ConclusionDISPERS-guided ablation using machine learning software (the Volta VX1 software) in addition to PVI in long-standing persistent AF ablation resulted in high long-term success rates regarding AF and AT elimination. Most arrhythmia recurrences were reentrant AT. After a total of 1.46  ± 0.68 procedures, freedom from AF/AT was 82%. Despite prolonged procedure times complication rates were low. Randomized studies are necessary to evaluate long-term efficacy of dispersion-guided ablation using AI.
