Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia and catheter
ablation, which can be used in symptomatic patients refractory to antiarrhythmic therapy …

Aims To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of pulmonary vein isolation in paroxysmal
atrial fibrillation (PAF) using a standardized workflow aiming to enclose the veins with …

Background Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) using high power delivered by SmartTouch
Surround Flow (STSF) catheters guided by ablation index (AI) was evaluated in a …

Background High-power short-duration (HPSD) ablation strategy has emerged as a popular
approach for treating atrial fibrillation (AF), with shorter ablation time. The utilized Smart …

Purpose Reconnection of pulmonary veins (PVs) remains common following radiofrequency
catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF). Ablation Index (AI) is a novel ablation quality …

Abstract Background VISITAG SURPOINT (VS)–guided ablation of paroxysmal atrial
fibrillation has demonstrated good short-and long-term success rates with low rates of …

Aims Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) using ablation index (AI) incorporates stability, contact
force (CF), time, and power. The CLOSE protocol combines AI and≤ 6 mm interlesion …

Background Ablation index (AI) is used for guiding therapy during pulmonary vein isolation.
However, its potential utility in ventricular myocardium is unknown. Objectives This study …

Background Ablation index (AI) is a new lesion quality marker that has been demonstrated
to allow a high single‐procedure arrhythmia‐free survival in single‐center studies. This …

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation outcome is still operator dependent. Ablation
Index (AI) is a new lesion quality marker that has been demonstrated to allow acute durable …
