Comparison of intracardiac vs. transesophageal echocardiography for “one-stop” procedures of combined radiofrequency catheter ablation and left atrial appendage closure with the Watchman device in the treatment of atrial fibrillation

Comparison of intracardiac vs. transesophageal echocardiography for “one-stop” procedures of combined radiofrequency catheter ablation and left atrial appendage closure with the Watchman device in the treatment of atrial fibrillation

Background and objectiveThis study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of “one-stop” procedures that combined radiofrequency catheter ablation and left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) with the Watchman device under the guidance of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) vs. transesophageal echocardi...
