First <i>in vivo</i> robotic-assisted pulsed field ablation for atrial fibrillation in a swine model: a case report

The primary advantage of robotic-assisted PFA is the potential to enable remote operation. It may also improve catheter stability and reduce the learning curve for performing PFA. Potential risks of robotic-assisted PFA include violent damage to cardiac tissue and complications associated with PFA. The robotic-assisted PFA system is sensitive and accurate when operated on a swine model, though several challenges exist in translating findings from a swine model to human clinical practice, and further studies are needed to evaluate its safety and efficacy before clinical implementation.
