Multielectrode Radiofrequency Balloon for Atrial Fibrillation Catheter Ablation: A Multicenter Real-World Experience
All consecutive patients with paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation undergoing pulmonary vein isolation with the radiofrequency balloon catheter (RFB) "Heliostar" (Biosense Webster) will be included in a multicenter observational registry. The aim of the study is to assess the safety and arrhythmic outcome of atrial fibrillation ablation with the RFB in a real-world setting.
Inclusion: symptomatic atrial fibrillation with indication to catheter ablation.
Exclusion: age <18 years old; pregnancy; any contraindications to catheter ablation.
