The benefits of ablation using TactiFlex compared with TactiCath in an ex vivo model: a face-to-face experimental comparison study
The TactiFlex lesions were shallower than those of TactiCath. However, TactiFlex catheters reduced the steam pops during RF applications. Those data should help clinicians understand the characteristics of the catheters and develop adequate strategies.
