Dr Vivek Y Reddy (Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY, US) shares the results of the Point-by-Point Pulsed Field Ablation (+/- Radiofrequency Ablation) to Treat Atrial Fibrillation: A First-in-Human Trial.
The trial looked at tissue selectivity of pulsed field ablation (PFA), which provides safety advantages over radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in treating AFib.
