Comparison of HEMOlysis Markers Among Three Pulsed Field Ablation Systems: HEMO‐PFA Study
ABSTRACT Background Pulsed field ablation (PFA) has emerged as a novel non‐thermal modality for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. While hemolysis is a known complication of PFA, comparative data among different systems remain limited. Methods We prospectively enrolled 150 consecutive AF patients undergoing ablation with one of three PFA systems ...
