Safe and effective delivery of high-power, short-duration radiofrequency ablation lesions with a flexible-tip ablation catheter

Safe and effective delivery of high-power, short-duration radiofrequency ablation lesions with a flexible-tip ablation catheter

Background: High-power, short-duration (HPSD) radiofrequency ablation (RFA) may reduce ablation time. Concerns that catheter-mounted thermocouples (TCs) can underestimate tissue temperature, resulting in elevated risk of steam pop formation, potentially limit widespread adoption of HPSD ablation. Ob...
