Journal ArticleDOI

Catheter ablation of long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation: 5-year outcomes of the Hamburg Sequential Ablation Strategy.

TL;DR: During 5-year follow-up, single- and multiple ablation procedure success was 20% and 45%, respectively, for patients with LS-AF, and For patients with a total AF duration of <2 years, the outcomes were favorable.
Journal ArticleDOI

One-year clinical outcome after pulmonary vein isolation using the second-generation 28-mm cryoballoon.

TL;DR: The use of second-generation 28-mm cryoballoon for pulmonary vein isolation results in an 80% 1-year success rate and of 8 of 10 patients with arrhythmia recurrence, a second procedure using radiofrequency ablation demonstrated left atrial to pulmonary vein reconduction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased incidence of esophageal thermal lesions using the second-generation 28-mm cryoballoon.

TL;DR: Using the second-generation 28-mm CB, ETLs were detected in 6 of 50 patients and an esophageal temperature safety cutoff may prove valuable in the prevention ofETLs and requires further evaluation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The incidence of phrenic nerve injury during pulmonary vein isolation using the second-generation 28 mm cryoballoon.

TL;DR: The second‐generation cryoballoon has demonstrated greater procedural efficacy compared to the original CB, and whether increased efficacy translates into a higher incidence of phrenic nerve (PN) injury needs further evaluation.
