While the concept of visually guided pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has been established little is known on energy titration using laser ablation.METHODS AND RESULTS: In 60 patients with AF, PVI using the endoscopic ablation system (EAS) was performed in two groups. Visually guided ablation was carried out after obtaining optimal tissue contact with 5.5-8.5 W in the LD group and with >8.5 W in the HD group. Acute PVI after a single visually guided circular lesion set was achieved in 89% (HD) and 69% (LD), respectively, (P = 0.0004). In 70 and 39% of patients all PVs were isolated after a single ablation circle in the HD and LD group, respectively, (P = 0.009). After gap ablation all PVs were isolated with the EAS. More energy was deployed (6483 ± 1834 vs. 5306 ± 2258 Ws; P ≤ 0.0001) with less applications (31.6 ± 8 vs. 35.2 ± 15 applications per PV; P = 0.03) leading to shorter procedure times (128 ± 17 vs. 154 ± 38 min; P = 0.001). During median follow-up of 311 days (261-346) recurrence rate was 17 and 40% in the HD and LD group, respectively. In both groups one phrenic nerve palsy was observed.CONCLUSION: For the first time, it was demonstrated that high ablation power affects acute and chronic outcomes. High-dose laser balloon ablation allows for an acute PVI rate of 89% solely by visually guided circular ablation and is associated with a chronic success rate of 83% after a single procedure.",
