Safety and Efficacy of Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Elderly Patients

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
Pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) was evaluated in 479 patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), 52% paroxysmal. Among 104 patients > 75 years, complication rates and 6‐ and 12‐month arrhythmia‐free survival were not significantly different from younger patients. Age did not predict recurrence. PFA appears safe and effective in elderly AF patients.
