Official Title: Inflammatory Response Following " Pulsed Field Ablation " vs. Radiofrequency Ablation of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation-2
Brief Summary:
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia.Catheter ablation using pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in an established treatment strategy for AF.Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) is a non-thermal ablation modality which has recently been introduced in clinical practice with the aim of improving PVI efficacy and safety.The aim of this study is to analyse whether PFA generates a lower inflammatory reaction as compared to conventional radiofrequency ablation (RFA).
