Doctors may use cryoablation to treat atrial fibrillation (AFib). Learn about the procedure, effectiveness, risks, recovery, and more here.

People with AFib have a five-times increased risk of stroke compared to people without it, and the strokes can be more severe ...

PFA was noninferior to cryoablation for first recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Tissue-selective energy delivery and short application times ...

New research shows that cryoablation is a safe and effective approach to close congenital patent foramen ovale (PFO, a small ...

Cryoablation for atrial fibrillation is a procedure and not subject to FDA approval. However, devices used for this procedure may be subject to FDA approval.

It joins radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and cryoablation as the preferred treatments for atrial fibrillation. "I think the safety profile of PFA is significantly better," Uradu said.

Cryoablation (CRYO) is a novel catheter ablation technique for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, uncertainty persists regarding the role of metabolic modifications associated with CRYO.
