Pulmonary vein isolation disrupts an abnormal heartbeat. As a minimally invasive procedure, it’s gentle on your body, allowing you to recover quickly. You’ll get long-term relief from atrial …

Jan 9, 2024 · Pulmonary vein isolation is a treatment for an irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation (AFib). It is a type of cardiac ablation. Cardiac ablation uses heat or cold energy to …

Jul 18, 2014 · Complete isolation of the pulmonary veins (PV) is considered the cornerstone of catheter intervention to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). PV isolation using a cryoballoon has …

Jul 24, 2023 · Cryoablation is performed stepwise starting with the left superior pulmonary vein, the left inferior pulmonary vein, the right inferior pulmonary and last, the right superior …

Jun 1, 2021 · With the modern day cryoablation approach, PVI can often be achieved with a single circumferential ablation lesion. Ablation technologies that offer an expedited alternative …

May 31, 2023 · Pulsed filed ablation is a nonthermal energy form that leads to irreversible electroporation through the creation of electrical fields while targeting specifically cardio …

Dec 19, 2024 · We investigate whether additional linear ablation from the superior vena cava to the right atrial septum and cavotricuspid isthmus ablation improves the rhythm outcome of …

PV isolation through CB is the most studied single-shot technique for atrial fibrillation ablation, having shown the potential to alter the natural history of the arrhythmia. Several procedural …

Since ectopic beats originating from the pulmonary veins (PVs) have been shown to be the main trigger initiating AF, ... For each vein, cryoablation usually consists of a minimum of 2 …

Over the past 20 years, multiple studies have demonstrated the superiority of percutaneous catheter-based pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in the management of atrial fibrillation (AF).
