Pulsed-field ablation beyond pulmonary vein for persistent atrial fibrillation: efficacy and impact on left atrial function
One-year atrial arrhythmia freedom in PersAF patients after extensive PFA by means of a multielectrode catheter was high. Extra-PV ablation was safe, did not alter LA compliance but promoted a positive reverse remodeling with improved LA compliance and left ventricular systolic function.
