First United States Experience With Focal Pulsed‐Field Ablation Using the FARAPOINT Catheter for Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Drug‐refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT) after failed radiofrequency (RF) ablation remains a clinical challenge. Pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) is expanding to ventricular applications, but United States experience with focal pulsed‐field‐only catheters in VT is sparse, and pulsed‐field platforms are not equivalent across ...
