Haemolysis and myocardial and neural injury after monopolar pulsed field ablation using a novel lattice-tip catheter to treat atrial fibrillation
Post-procedural haemolysis after PFA for AF treatment is common and occurs across all PFA platforms. Pulsed field ablation using AfferaTM results in more myocardial injury than bipolar PFA systems with no indication of neural damage.
