Pulmonary vein isolation during atrial fibrillation using a circumferential cryoablation catheter
Related Research units
Abstract
Pulmonary vein (PV) isolation for the treatment of atrial fibrillation is limited by procedure related complications, such as PV stenosis and occlusions. We report about a PV isolation using a circumferential cryoablation catheter which applies the ablation energy simultaneously at the entire circumference by cooling down to a minimal temperature of -80 degrees C.
