Abstract Background The newly introduced nonthermal pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a promising technology to achieve fast pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) with high acute success rates and good safety features. One clinically nonsignificant PV stenosis occurred in the VHPSD group. Data comparing PFA to VHPSD-PVI is lacking.

Pulsed Field Ablation is a relatively new modality for treatment of atrial fibrillation. In conventional ablation for atrial fibrillation, either heating of tissue is produced by radiofrequency application or freezing of tissues by cryoablation. Pulsed field ablation group had 305 patients while thermal ablation group had 302 patients.

During its Annual Conference, HRS 2024, the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) announced findings from three new studies demonstrating the safety and efficacy of pulsed field ablation (PFA), a nonthermal ablation treatment for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). See full findings from the FARADISE, admIRE Study, and Advent Trial here.

BACKGROUND:Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a promising treatment for atrial fibrillation. Patients with paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation underwent pulmonary vein (PV) isolation under deep sedation or general anesthesia and returned for remapping at 90 days to evaluate chronic durability. paroxysmal, and 58.5%

ABSTRACT Introduction The safety and efficacy of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) ablation with the HELIOSTAR multielectrode radiofrequency (RF) balloon catheter have been demonstrated in European studies; data from elsewhere are lacking. The primary safety endpoint was the occurrence of early-onset primary adverse events (PAEs).
