Popis: | Background It has been demonstrated that a high‐power, short‐duration (HPSD) ablation during pulmonary vein (PV) isolation is effective and safe. However, studies about the HPSD ablation during the posterior wall isolation, the Box isolation (BOXI), are limited. We evaluated the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of HPSD ablation during BOXI. Methods One‐hundred sixty patients with all types of atrial fibrillation underwent BOXI with HPSD ablation (n = 80) or conventional technique (n = 80). In the HPSD group, ablation was performed with 50 W and a target lesion size index of 5.0 using a contact force (CF) sensing catheter. Ablation near the esophagus was performed with 50 W for 5 seconds and a CF The Box isolation (BOXI) with high‐power, short‐duration ablation is effective, feasible, and safe with short BOXI creation and procedure times without reducing the clinical outcomes. |
