    Recurrence of atrial fibrillation within three months of an ablation is seen in most patients, but many of those patients become free of atrial fibrillation in the long term. [17] For this reason the first three months after an ablation are described as the "blanking period," during which no further intervention is to be attempted. [17]

    The system, PulseSelect Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA), is used for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF), a condition that is characterized by an irregular rhythm of the heart. PFA is used for ...

    Atrial fibrillation is associated with an increased risk of heart failure, dementia, and stroke. [3] [12] It is a type of supraventricular tachycardia. [14] Atrial fibrillation frequently results from bursts of tachycardia that originate in muscle bundles extending from the atrium to the pulmonary veins. [15]

    A major reason for recurrence of atrial fibrillation after ablation has been the belief of electrical pulmonary vein reconnection, which has not been seen for PFA. [7] In one study, atrial fibrillation recurrence in the thermal ablation group was 39% compared to 11% in the PFA group. [8]

    For TIC due to atrial fibrillation, rate control, rhythm control, and RF catheter ablation can be effective to control the tachyarrhythmia and improve left ventricular systolic function. [ 5 ] [ 9 ] For TIC due to atrial flutter, rate control is often difficult to achieve, and RF catheter ablation has a relatively high success rate with a low ...

    Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a method of removing aberrant tissue from within the body via minimally invasive procedures, it is used to cure a variety of cardiac arrhythmia such as supraventricular tachycardia, Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome (WPW), ventricular tachycardia, and more recently as management of atrial fibrillation.
