Contact-Force-Sensing-Based Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation in Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardias (COBRA-PATH): a randomized controlled trial

DiscussionWe expect to see a reduced number/duration of RF applications required to achieve effective lesion creation, and consequently a decrease in total procedure/fluoroscopy times. Although a significant improvement in procedural success rates (acute/long term) might not be feasible to demonstrate (given the relatively high success rate of the standard ablation method), the possible decrease in procedure duration and the consequential reduction of radiation exposure has important clinical implications for both operators and patients undergoing the procedure.Trial registrationClinicalTrials,NCT04078685.
