Comparison between First- and Second-Generation Cryoballoon for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Ablation
Introduction. Cryoballoon (CB) ablation has emerged as a novel treatment for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). The second-generation Arctic Front Advance (ADV) was redesigned with technical modifications aiming at procedural and outcome improvements. We aimed to compare the efficacy of the two different technologies over a long-term follow-up...
متن کاملSecond-generation cryoballoon ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation: 1-year follow-up.
BACKGROUND The novel cryoballoon Advance (CB-A) has proven to achieve significantly lower temperatures and faster pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) times in comparison with the first-generation device. Although acutely very effective, to the best of our knowledge, data on mid-term clinical follow-up is lacking. AIMS The aim of the study was to analyse the freedom from recurrence of atrial fibril...
متن کاملSecond-generation cryoballoon ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation: a step forward?
Electrical isolation of the pulmonary veins (PVs) is the established endpoint during ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) as implemented in the latest European guidelines. Limitations of point-by-point radiofrequency (RF) ablation commonly utilized in combination with a three-dimensional (3D) electroanatomical mapping system led to the development and evaluation of alternative ablation systems ...
متن کاملCryoballoon ablation in young patients with lone paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Long-term efficacy following cryoballoon ablation of lone paroxysmal atrial fibrillation remains unknown. We describe long-term follow-up results of the single cryoballoon ablation procedure. METHODS Pulmonary vein isolation was performed in 103 patients (72 male; median age 52 years) with symptomatic lone paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The end-point of this obser...
متن کاملCryoballoon Ablation for Pulmonary Vein Isolation in Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: One-Year Outcome Using Second Generation Cryoballoon.
BACKGROUND Data regarding the freedom from atrial fibrillation (AF) in the follow-up of persistent AF patients is limited. The second-generation cryoballoon has better cooling properties compared with first-generation cryoballon. In this study, we aimed to assess the medium-term efficacy of second-generation cryoballoon in patients with persistent AF. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 100 patien...
