Cryoballoon Ablation as Initial Therapy for Atrial Fibrillation
In patients with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation that has not responded to medication, catheter ablation is more effective than antiarrhythmic drug therapy for maintaining sinus rhythm. However, the safety and efficacy of cryoballoon ablation as initial first-line therapy have not been established.We performed a multicenter trial in which ...

Cryoballoon or Radiofrequency Ablation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
Current guidelines recommend pulmonary-vein isolation by means of catheter ablation as treatment for drug-refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Radiofrequency ablation is the most common method, and cryoballoon ablation is the second most frequently used technology.We conducted a multicenter, randomized trial to determine whether cryoballoon ...

Cryoballoon Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2010Cryoballoon 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.

The Biophysics and Biomechanics of Cryoballoon Ablation
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2012Recent 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, 2020Purpose 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 left atrial roof with a novel cryoballoon system
European Heart Journal, 2022Abstract 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 versus radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation
Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2017Catheter 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).

Cryoballoon ablation for pulmonary vein isolation
Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2020AbstractOver 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 ...
