The dominant single‐shot procedure for Pulmonary Vein Isolation (PVI) is the Cryoballoon Ablation (CBA) technique using a spiral catheter (Achieve™, AC) for mapping and monitoring purposes. We hypothesized that Basket Catheters, such as the High Density Mesh Mapper (HDMM), with its high‐density mapping properties, could detect Pulmonary Vein Potentials (PVPs) that the octapolar AC would not be able to identify.
