Pulsed-Field Ablation for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation in EU-PORIA Registry.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Real-life data on efficacy and safety of pulsed-field ablation (PFA) using the pentaspline multi-electrode catheter in symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF) patients is still scarce.

Objective

This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of PFA in patients with persistent AF.

Methods

Data from early commercial use across seven European centers were collected in a registry. To confirm the efficacy and safety of extra pulmonary vein (PV) ablation, patients were categorized into two groups: those undergoing pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone and those receiving additional ablation. Procedural and follow-up data were collected.
