Contiguity Between Ablation Lesions and Strict Catheter Stability Settings Assessed by VISITAGTM Module Improve Clinical Outcomes of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Ablation 　- Results From the VISITALY Study.

CONCLUSIONS: Paroxysmal AF ablation with contact force technology and strict criteria of stability using the VISITAG module was a safe procedure, associated with an improvement in efficiency and a reduction of atrial tachyarrhythmia recurrence at the 12-month follow-up compared with manual annotation. Contiguity between lesions seemed to enhance effectiveness outcomes. PMID: 29415917 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
