Segmental nonocclusive cryoballoon ablation of pulmonary veins and extrapulmonary vein structures: Best practices III [PDF]

Heart Rhythm, 2021
Although cryoballoon ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) has been traditionally guided by pulmonary vein (PV) occlusion, there is evidence and growing interest in performing segmental, non-occlusive cryoballoon ablation to target not only large/common ...

The Biophysics and Biomechanics of Cryoballoon Ablation

PACE - Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2012
Recent clinical and preclinical studies have demonstrated that cryothermal ablation using a balloon catheter (Artic Front®, Medtronic CryoCath LP, Pointe‐Claire, Canada) provides an effective means of achieving pulmonary vein isolation. This review explores the biophysics and biomechanics of cryoballoon ablation.

Cryoballoon ablation for extrapulmonary vein targets

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2020
Purpose of review Cryoballoon catheter can create large and contiguous lesions with stable contact during ablation. It has proven to be well tolerated and effective in pulmonary vein isolation. But atrial arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycardia, and atrial flutter (AFL), also relate to many extrapulmonary

Cryoballoon Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2010
Cryoballoon Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation .  Pulmonary vein isolation using a cryoballoon has evolved into a relatively simple alternative for point‐by‐point radiofrequency ablation because this technology theoretically allows for PV isolation with a single application.

Cryoballoon ablation of left atrial roof with a novel cryoballoon system

European Heart Journal, 2022
Abstract Introduction A novel cryoballoon system (POLARx) has emerged and its efficacy regarding pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has been already investigated. On the other hand, cryoballoon ablation of left atrial (LA) roof has been performed using a conventional cryoballoon system (Arctic Front ...

Cryoballoon ablation for pulmonary vein isolation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2020
AbstractOver the past 20 years, multiple studies have demonstrated the superiority of percutaneous catheter‐based pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in the management of atrial fibrillation (AF). Unfortunately, the results of catheter ablation can be limited by arrhythmia recurrence, which is often a result of a failure to achieve durable lesions around ...

Cryoballoon ablation versus radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2017
Catheter ablation (CA) provides the most effective treatment option for patients suffering from symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF). The procedural cornerstone of all ablation strategies and for all entities of AF is the electrical isolation of the pulmonary veins (PV).

The impact of early cryoballoon ablation on clinical outcome in patients with atrial fibrillation: From the Korean cryoballoon ablation registry

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2023
AbstractIntroductionInfluence of early atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, particularly cryoballoon ablation (CBA), on clinical outcome during long‐term follow‐up has not been clarified. The objective was to determine whether an early CBA (diagnosis‐to‐ablation of ≤6 months) strategy could affect freedom from AF recurrence after index CBA.MethodsThe ...

Recent advances in cryoballoon ablation for atrial fibrillation

Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2019
Introduction: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), by catheter ablation, represents the current treatment for drug-resistant atrial fibrillation (AF). Nowadays cryoballoon (CB) is a recognized ablation method in patients with atrial fibrillation, mainly due to its ease of use, leading to reproducible and fast procedures.
