pubmed:abstractText |
Balloon-based catheters are an emerging technology in catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation, which aim to achieve consistent and rapid ablation encirclement of pulmonary veins (PVs). Recent emphasis has been placed on achieving more proximal electrical isolation within the PV-left atrial (LA) junction. We sought to evaluate the precise anatomic level of PV electrical disconnection with current design balloon-based catheters.
