AF is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia and radiofrequency is the dominant energy source used for atrial ablation. Owing to an ageing population and the increasing burden of cardiovascular disease, the prevalence of AF, particularly in developed countries, is increasing.1,2 With increasing prevalence comes additional financial burden.3 It is paramount that AF therapy is effective in…

AF Symposium 2024 — Dr Emile Daoud (Chief Medical Officer of S4 Medical) joins us to talk about the data from the EASY AF study (NCT04659213).This randomized, controlled study investigated the use of an esophageal deviating device versus no device. The study showed that the use of the esophageal deviating device (S4 Medical) resulted in a significantly lower rate of ablation-related esophageal…

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia in the clinical practice.1 The prevalence of the arrhythmia is progressively increasing in developed countries and moreover, it is expected to affect up to 12 million people only in the US by 2050.2 Antiarrhythmic drugs continue to represent the first-line of treatment in AF patients, either to restore sinus rhythm or to prevent…

Catheter ablation is an effective strategy to maintain sinus rhythm in patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF), which has evolved from a highly specialised technique to a first-line therapy.1–3 The cornerstone of ablation is pulmonary vein isolation (PVI).4 Over the last decade, ablation devices have undergone technical improvements, aiming for better lesion durability and ablation…

Advanced catheter-based technologies employed for the ablation of symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF) have revolutionised the management of this common sustained arrhythmia. In the late 1990s, premature depolarisations originating from the myocardial sleeves within the pulmonary veins were recognised to initiate AF. This landmark discovery rendered pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) as the…
