Background: Cryoablation to achieve pulmonary vein (PV) isolation has become one of the standard approaches for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. The Arctic Front series cryoballoon and Achieve circular mapping catheter (Medtronic) inherently possess design defects that have been associated with unfavorite clinical outcomes. Lately, a new cryoablation system (Nordica Cryoablation System, Synaptic Medical) was developed with improved design of the cryoballoon and circular mapping catheter to address the inadequacies of current cryoablation technology.
