Modified stepwise method with the guidance of QDOT MICRO catheter for mitral isthmus ablation in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation
The QDM catheter can be used to map the potential of VOM from endocardium, thereby facilitating precise endocardial mitral isthmus linear ablation. The modified stepwise approach effectively reduces the number of endocardial ablation points and the likelihood of requiring epicardial ablation. (NCT06145906, ClinicalTrial.gov).
