Article Synopsis
- Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a new heart treatment that is different from traditional methods, and this study compared PFA to another method called high-power short-duration radiofrequency (HPSD-RF) for success in treating heart rhythm problems.
- The study involved 410 patients, and it found that the PFA method took less time and had fewer complications compared to HPSD-RF.
- Both methods were effective, with similar success rates at keeping the heart rhythm normal after one year, but the chance of problems coming back after treatment was about the same for both methods.

Background: Thermal left atrial ablation can cause bronchial damage. Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a novel, nonthermal ablation modality for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. We report on bronchial effects after pulmonary vein isolation using PFA for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
