| Popis: | Purpose The optimal radiofrequency (RF) power and lesion duration using contact force (CF) sensing catheters for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation are unknown. We evaluate 50 W RF power for very short durations using CF sensing catheters during AF ablation. Methods We evaluated 51 patients with paroxysmal (n = 20) or persistent (n = 31) AF undergoing initial RF ablation. Results A total of 3961 50 W RF lesions were given (average 77.6 ± 19.1/patient) for an average duration of only 11.2 ± 3.7 s. As CF increased from 40 g, the RF application duration decreased from 13.7 ± 4.4 to 8.6 ± 2.5 s (p 40 g of force. As CF increased, the force time integral (FTI) increased from 47 ± 24 to 376 ± 102 gs (p |
