Preclinical evaluation of reversible pulsed electrical field: electrophysiological and histological assessment of myocardium.

Background: Pulsed field ablation, as a non-thermal ablation modality, has received increasing attention. The aim of this study is to explore whether a reversible pulsed electric field (RPEF) can temporarily inhibit electrical conduction and provide a novel method for precise ablation of arrhythmia.

Methods: RPEF energy was delivered from an ablation catheter to the atrium of six dogs, followed by a series of electrogram and histology assessments.

Impact of Pulsed Electric Field Ablation on His Bundle Conduction: A Preclinical Canine Study.

BACKGROUND Pulsed field ablation (PFA), as a non-thermal ablation modality, has received increasing attention. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of PFA upon His bundle via its implementation with different voltages on the maximum His bundle potential in canines, providing scientific basis for clinical application. MATERIAL AND METHODS Pulsed electrical field energy was delivered from a ablation catheter to the maximum His potential of 7 dogs, followed by a series of electrogram and histology assessments.
