One-year follow-up after irrigated multi-electrode radiofrequency ablation of persistent atrial fibrillation
Conclusion
With similar total procedure duration, IMEA-PVI was associated with shorter net ablation time and longer fluoroscopy time. Irrigated multi-electrode ablation recordings were not sufficient to confirm isolation in 35% of PVs. Single-procedure efficacy after 12 months was similar between the two groups.
