Official Title: Pulmonary Vein Isolation Versus Complex Procedure Using Pulsed-field Ablation in Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Brief Summary:
Since a new method called pulsed-field ablation (PFA) has emerged, allowing significantly simpler, safer, and faster creation of ablative lesions in paroxysmal AF and PsAF (13), redefining the "optimal" ablation approach started to appear mandatory. Our project (The PIVCO study) aims to determine a more standardized procedure representing optimal ablation strategy for patients suffering from PsAF using PFA and multielectrode ablation catheters. The central hypothesis is that ablation of the posterior LA wall…
