Abstract: Abstract Aims The very high-power short-duration (vHP-SD) radiofrequency (RF) ablation concept of atrial fibrillation (AF) treatment by pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) aims for safer, more effective, and faster procedures. Utilizing conventional ablation, the ‘close protocol’… read more here.
