Long-Term Differences in Autonomic Alterations After Cryoballoon vs Radiofrequency Atrial Fibrillation Ablation
Pulmonary vein isolation using thermal ablation energy results in significant sustained changes in the heart rate parameters related to autonomic function. These changes are independent of the ablation technology employed and are associated with procedural success.
