Abstract: PurposeRadiofrequency ablation (RFA) is widely used to treat patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), but its recurrence rate is still high mainly due to pulmonary vein reconnection and residual conduction gaps. We aim to establish a… read more here.

Abstract: BackgroundFinding the conduction gaps in redo PV isolation procedures is challenging, and several maneuvers have been described. In the present study, we analyze the pace and map (P&M) maneuver [atrial mapping during pulmonary vein (PV)… read more here.
