Impact of the Individual Operator Experience and Learning Curve of a Novel Size Adjustable Cryoballoon
In AF ablation using SA-CBs, the overall procedural efficacy and safety were comparable between the E-group and LE-group. However, 100 CB procedures seemed to still be in the middle of a learning curve for selecting the balloon size and balloon position, especially for right PVs.
