Cryoablation of atrial fibrillation with the fourth-generation balloon : the first reported case / M. Moltrasio, F. Tundo, G. Fassini, R. Sicuso, S. Cellucci, C. Tondo. - In: PACING AND CLINICAL ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY. - ISSN 0147-8389. - 42:5(2019), pp. 553-556.
Abstract:
Cryoballoon ablation was developed as a new treatment for pulmonary vein (PV) isolation and has demonstrated high procedural success and comforting long-term clinical outcome. However, some improvements are necessary for real-time visualization of PV signals that appeared important to increase the efficacy and reduce ineffective cryoapplications. We report, for the first time, a cryoablation procedure using the fourth-generation cryoballoon, describing betterment in vein signal recording and acute procedural success.
