Incidence and long-term follow-up of silent cerebral lesions after pulmonary vein isolation using a remote robotic navigation system as compared with manual ablation.
BACKGROUND The incidence of silent cerebral lesions (SCL) after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation is highly variable, depending on the technology used. Recently, an increased risk for SCL has been described for a novel, nonirrigated ablation tool using multielectrode phased radiofrequency (PVAC). The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the incidence and long-term follow-up of SCL in p...

متن کاملAtrial fibrillation ablation using a robotic catheter remote control system: initial human experience and long-term follow-up results.
OBJECTIVES We present the initial clinical human experience with the use of a robotic remote navigation system (Hansen Medical, Mountain View, California), to perform left and right atrial mapping and radiofrequency ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL). BACKGROUND Catheter ablation is an established curative modality for various arrhythmias. A robotic steerable sheath...
